On Saturday, May 16, 2026, The HEARTest Yard program and Showmars Restaurants are joining forces to host the 10th annual HEARTest Yard + Showmars 5K, presented by LifeShare Carolinas! With a shared mission to support Atrium Health Levine Children’s Hospital, this dedicated community is coming together to make an even bigger impact — raising funds and awareness to help care for as many kids with congenital heart conditions as possible.
Run or walk the scenic streets of the Queen City. After the race stick around and join us at a post-race celebration that will include comments from Greg Olsen, a complimentary Kid’s Fun Run, refreshments, music, inflatables and more. Let’s run, walk, and rally for these amazing heart warriors!
