About this Event
Run. Reflect. Reset.
Join Pele Counseling & Consulting Corp. on Saturday, October 24, 2026, for The Pause at Pele 5K, a community run/walk bringing people together for movement, reflection, connection, and a meaningful cause.
Whether you run, walk, or do a little of both, this event is for you. All fitness levels are welcome.
More Than a 5K
The Pause at Pele 5K is about more than crossing a finish line. It is an opportunity to step away from the demands of everyday life, move your body, connect with your community, and support mothers who spend so much of their lives caring for others that their own well-being can easily take a back seat.
The event supports The Pause at Pele, our initiative that is designed to provide restorative wellness experiences and supportive resources for mothers experiencing stress, burnout, and emotional exhaustion.
Your Miles Make a Difference
Proceeds from the 5K will help Pele create accessible opportunities for mothers to pause, restore, and reconnect with themselves through restorative wellness experiences, community resources, screenings, and referrals.
Our goal is to raise $10,000 to expand this work and reach more mothers in our community.
