Lace up for a cause at the annual Forget Me Not Race on April 11, 2026, in beautiful Farragut, TN. This inspiring event offers both a 10K and a 5K distance, welcoming runners of all abilities to hit the pavement for a meaningful mission. The race proudly benefits The Pat Summitt Clinic at The University of Tennessee Medical Center, with all proceeds directly supporting vital Alzheimer's research and patient care in the fight against this devastating disease.

The scenic course, starting and finishing at Planet Fitness on Kingston Pike, winds through the charming Village Green subdivision. Runners tackling the 5K can expect a largely flat route, ideal for setting a personal best or enjoying a leisurely run, while 10K participants will encounter a couple of engaging hills to add a strategic challenge. Typical race day conditions in early April feature comfortable highs around 70°F and lows around 46°F, with a relatively low 22% chance of precipitation, creating a pleasant running environment.

Beyond the race itself, the Forget Me Not Race fosters a supportive and lively atmosphere. While specific aid station details were not provided, refreshments are typically available both before and after the race, ensuring runners are well-fueled. Past events have been known for their celebratory post-race gatherings, complete with music and door prizes, adding to the community spirit of this impactful event. Join fellow runners in Farragut to honor Pat Summitt's legacy and make every stride count towards a future without Alzheimer's.
