Robbie’s Run 2026

Robbie's Run is a Downtown Memphis unity run with a 5K for runners and a one-mile option for walkers or runners. It starts in the morning during summer and is designed for locals, visitors, adults, kids, and people who want to support the cause without focusing on a fast time. A Virtual 5K is also available, allowing those not in Memphis to participate and receive a race shirt. The in-person routes traverse the streets of Downtown Memphis, keeping the event connected to the city it benefits. All proceeds benefit The Gloria Smith Foundation, which serves Memphis communities in need, and the event aims for a significant fundraising total for that work. Youth entries are available for children 12 and under, contributing to the day's atmosphere as a community gathering rather than solely a competitive 5K.
