Key to a Cure 5K

Lace up your sneakers and get ready to run, walk, or cheer with a whole lot of Southern heart! The very first Key to a Cure 5K is ready to make its debut in true Alabamian fashion as this brand new race tradition begins. Under our motto, "Caring—Our Way of Life," this event is all about coming together, lifting each other up, and stepping out to create a brighter future for tomorrow.

Help us bring brighter futures to the kids at Children’s of Alabama!

The Bright Futures 5k and Fun Run is brand-new, and we are racing to make a difference. Every single dollar raised goes straight to Children’s of Alabama Hospital in Birmingham to support vital research, daily operations, and most importantly, the children.

While the cause is close to our hearts, we’ve also designed an unforgettable day of celebration for you and your family!

What’s waiting for you at the finish line?

• Food Trucks
• Family Festival
• Fun Vendors
• Welcoming Community

Whether you run, walk, or just come for the food trucks—your presence matters to us!
