Leah’s Legacy 5K Run/Walk & Kids Fun Run — 4th Annual EventJoin us on Sunday, September 13, 2026, at City Center at Slack Plaza in downtown Charleston for the 4th Annual Leah’s Legacy 5K Run, 2 mile Walk, and Kids Fun Run.
Leah’s Legacy was created to honor Leah’s life by bringing the community together and supporting local students through scholarships. What began as a tribute has grown into a powerful community tradition. In just a few years, nearly 2,000 participants have helped raise more than $100,000, allowing Leah’s Legacy to award $12,500 in scholarships to five local students so far—with even more impact planned for the future.
This year’s event is expected to welcome 800+ participants for an evening filled with community, remembrance, and celebration.
What to Expect
• Professionally timed 5K race
• 2 mile community walk open to all ages and abilities
• Kids Fun Run
• Live entertainment
• Food trucks and beverages
• Community vendors and local sponsors
Leah’s Legacy is more than a race. It’s a moment each year when Charleston comes together to honor a life, support local students, and celebrate the power of community.
