Hope in Every Breath

Lace up your running shoes for the "Hope in Every Breath" 5K, an inspiring event set to take place on Saturday, April 11, 2026, in the picturesque Hershey PA West End area of Hummelstown, PA. This scenic 5K route promises an enjoyable experience for runners of all levels, winding through charming local surroundings. Beyond the beautiful course, participants will be delighted by a unique touch: be on the lookout for classic Burma Shave signs providing entertainment along the way.

This race offers more than just a memorable run; it's an opportunity to contribute to a vital cause, with all proceeds benefiting the Penn State College of Medicine Division of Pulmonary, Allergy, and Critical Care. Runners can anticipate typical race day conditions with highs around 63F and lows near 41F, accompanied by a low 14% chance of precipitation, creating an ideal atmosphere for a spring race. Top finishers will be celebrated with cash awards of $100 and $50 for the first two overall male and female runners, and medals will be presented to the top two finishers in each age group.

Each registrant receives an event shirt and a colorful Wegman's reusable shopping bag filled with goodies. After crossing the finish line, consider making your race day complete with breakfast at Englewood Hershey, conveniently located just across the street from the race site at 1214 Research Blvd. Join the Hummelstown community for a rewarding 5K that combines fitness, philanthropy, and fun.
