About the event

The Puppy Creek Fire Department is excited to announce the return of our 8th Annual "Run for a Cure" 5K.

The 5K is a chance to get out and crawl-walk-jog-run with your neighbors, family and friends to help raise money towards getting free breast exams, wig assistance and other breast cancer related opportunities for Hoke County residents who don't have the resources to do so. Our goal is to raise awareness of breast cancer and generate interest in donating some money and educating the public on breast cancer and ways to identify it and work through it. Cape Fear Valley Heath is a key member of our team, a partner organization and once again has graciously donated the start/stop and parking locations for the participants. We are excited to have Hoke County Sheriff's Office, and Hoke County EMS assisting with the event!

The 5K will take place on Oct 28, 2023. Shirt and bib pick up start at 730am. Race starts at 9am. Start/Finish will be located at the Cape Fear Valley Hoke Pavilion (rear entrance). The race will begin in the parking lot, turn right on Johnson Mill Rd, turn right on Pittman Grove Church Rd and go to the end of Pittman Grove by 401/Fayetteville Rd as the turn around. The finish will be back at the starting line. Law enforcement will provide traffic control.

Preregistration will be from 8/31/23 - 10/27/23 online ($25) and we will have walk up registration ($30) also. Early registration by 10/06/23, guarantees a t-shirt will be waiting for you race day! NO shirts will be guaranteed if you register after 10/06/23 at noon, to include walk up registration the day of the race. Children 7 and under can participate for free, however no shirt or medal will be issued. This will be a self-timed event and prizes for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place men and women will be awarded.

Everyone with a runner’s bib who completes the race will receive a race medal at the finishing line. NO SHOWS WILL FORFEIT SHIRT AND MEDAL. The Fire Department, Cape Fear Valley, Sheriff’s Department, or EMS will not be responsible to hold personal property for anyone.
