Countdown To Race Day
Event Description
Join us for the Bridge 4 Hope 4K & 8K, a meaningful community event bringing people together to celebrate hope, honor those impacted by cancer, and support the fight for a future without cancer.
Whether you choose the 4K or take on the 8K, every step represents something bigger. We’ll come together as runners, walkers, survivors, caregivers, families, and friends — united by one goal: to build a bridge toward hope.
This event is designed for all abilities. Run it, walk it, bring your friends, form a team, or participate in honor or memory of someone special.
Choose Your Distance
Bridge 4 Hope 4K
A 4-kilometer run/walk perfect for participants of all ages and abilities. Run it or walk it with family and friends. You will have 90 minutes to stroll or speed down Main Street and get back to the bridge, where your return will be celebrated with a finishers medal and a view worth the effort!
Bridge 4 Hope 8K
Looking for a challenge? Take on the 8K! You will still get the experience of running on Main Street and across the bridge PLUS added milage on some of Erwin's most beautiful streets... and through Gentry Stadium! The 8k will include finishers medals as well as prizes for the top runners!
Please note - Main will reopen in 90 minutes after the start of the race. If you are unable to run or walk 18 m/m, please sign up for the 4K.
After 90 minutes, those on course will be directed to use sidewalks and use extra caution to complete the path to the bridge. Rides to the bridge may be available if needed/requested to complete the event.
Every registration and every mile helps us shine a light on the people in our community whose lives have been touched by cancer.
One community. Two distances. One powerful purpose.
Come cross the Bridge 4 Hope with us.
