Join the inspiring Pink Ribbon 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run on Sunday, October 18, 2026, in beautiful Groveland, Florida, a heartwarming event dedicated to supporting breast cancer services in South Lake County. Kicking off promptly at 8:00 AM EDT from Lake David Park, this chip-timed 5K and accessible 1-mile fun run/walk welcomes participants of all abilities to run, walk, crawl, roll, or stroll towards a vital cause. The event raises crucial funds for Libby's Legacy Breast Cancer Foundation, a local organization established in honor of a Groveland resident who bravely battled breast cancer. Their mission provides comprehensive services, including education, mammograms, and follow-up diagnostics, ensuring no one faces their journey alone.
Runners can anticipate typical race day conditions in mid-October with highs around 87°F and lows near 66°F, offering a pleasant Florida morning with only an 8% chance of precipitation. The picturesque setting of Lake David Park provides a scenic backdrop for both the competitive 5K and the more relaxed 1-mile fun run, which starts just after the 5K at 8:05 AM EDT. Whether you're aiming for a personal best or enjoying a meaningful outing with family and friends, the Pink Ribbon Run promises an uplifting atmosphere where every step contributes to the fight for survivorship.
