Heart Strides 8K, 5K, and Fun Run

This purpose of this race is to bring together the hospital and community and to highlight heart month. We want to emphasize health, wellness, and the importance of heart health. We want to increase awareness of the heart related services available at our facility. All proceeds benefit the Lenoir Memorial Foundation. Additionally, runners are encouraged to run in honor of someone dealing with heart related diagnoses or in memory of someone lost to heart related diagnoses. We will have red ribbons for participants as well. Runners are also encouraged to adorn themselves in heart month colors, or heart themed costumes and to enter for a chance to win in spirit categories!
