AdventHealth Sebring Foundation Pink on Parade 5K & 1 Mile Run/Walk Presented by Chen Dental
Pink on Parade is a community 5K and 1-mile run/walk in Sebring, Florida, based at 4200 Sun N Lake Boulevard. The race is tied to AdventHealth Sebring Foundation and supports people affected by breast cancer: participants run or walk to honor those in treatment, celebrate survivors, and remember loved ones who have died. It also offers a virtual 5K, so supporters can join without being on the Sebring course. Race morning starts early, with packet pickup, an opening ceremony, and both in-person distances beginning at 7:30 am. This is more of a pink-shirt community fundraiser than a hard-edged racing event, though awards are given after the run and walk. Families are part of the day, with games and food truck vendors after the course. More than 300 men and women have joined each year over the last six years, usually wearing their pinkest gear. Since 2017, the event has directed more than $275,000 to the AdventHealth Sebring Breast Center, helping buy breast-care technology and supporting people in Hardee and Highlands counties who cannot afford breast cancer screenings.
