Brandon True Memorial Heroes For The Homeless 5K Presented by Anderson Communities 2027

The Brandon True Memorial Heroes For The Homeless 5K is an annual 5K run/walk in Lexington, Kentucky, starting at Coldstream Park and using the Legacy Trail. The event also offers a 1 Mile Fun Walk, a Little Heroes Kid's Dash, a virtual runner/walker option, and volunteer roles, allowing participation without committing to the full 5K. It raises money for Lexington residents experiencing homelessness and benefits the New Life Day Center. The course is flat, fast, and paved, suitable for walkers, first-time 5K runners, and those seeking a quick time. The race honors the life of Brandon True, with Anderson Communities as presenting sponsor. Finishers receive commemorative unisex race shirts, awards are given to the top three men and women overall and in five-year age groups, and social teams offer a way for friends, families, and coworkers to participate together.
