Run for Resilience 5K

Run for Resilience 5K is a family-friendly community run/walk hosted by Rebuild Yourself Inc., a Central Florida nonprofit dedicated to supporting teen mental and emotional wellness. This event is open to participants of all ages and fitness levels and is designed to bring families, churches, schools, and community members together around health, hope, and resilience.

The 5K will take place at Bill Frederick Park at Turkey Lake and will include a timed run, a non-competitive walk option, and space for community connection before and after the race. Participants are encouraged to run, walk, or jog at their own pace while enjoying the scenic park setting.

Proceeds from the event directly support Rebuild Yourself Inc.’s youth programs, which focus on building confidence, emotional strength, and positive coping skills for teens through peer support, creative activities, and community-based wellness initiatives. These programs aim to create safe, encouraging spaces where teens feel supported, valued, and empowered.

Run for Resilience 5K is alcohol-free and designed to be welcoming for families, youth groups, and faith-based communities looking for a meaningful way to support youth mental wellness while engaging in healthy activity together.
