Ainsley's Angels 11th Annual Spirit Of Inclusion 5K 2026

The Spirit of Inclusion 5K is a community race hosted by Ainsley's Angels at Hopyard Farms. This residential neighborhood hosts the main 5K event in the afternoon. Participants can join in several ways: an in-person 5K, as an Angel Pusher, an Athlete Rider, a virtual 5K, or by running the Hopyard Harvest Mile or Hopyard Harvest Half Mile. The 5K route is mostly flat, winding through neighborhood streets where many residents come out to support runners, walkers, riders, and DUO teams. Participants are invited to wear costumes for the yearly contest, and spectators gather to cheer for their favorite runners and athlete-rider pairings. The event's core principle is practical inclusion, aiming to help athletes cross the finish line together.
