Get ready to rise up at the 3rd Annual She Slays 5K, happening Saturday, April 25, 2026, in partnership with Pardee Hospital Foundation’s Women Helping Women and Hunter Subaru!
This empowering event celebrates the strength, courage, and unstoppable spirit of women—encouraging each of us to take charge of our health and lift one another up. Every step you take supports local women in Hendersonville fighting cancer.
Whether you run, walk, or dance your way across the finish line, you’ll be part of something bigger—women helping women, slaying together, and making a real difference.
Everyone is welcome to join the movement!
Discounted pricing for kids 12 and under!
We love seeing families get active together! All participants ages 12 and under can register for just $25 through April 12th. After that time, the price increases to $30 until race day. (No code needed—the discount is automatically applied at checkout!)

Honor a Friend or Loved One
Celebrate the strength and spirit of someone special by purchasing a Memory Mile yard sign — in honor of a loved one currently battling cancer or in memory of someone who has passed. Each sign will feature their name and either a cancer-awareness ribbon or a photo, proudly displayed along the 'Memory Mile' on race day.
If you’re participating in the race, you can add your sign during registration. Not racing? No problem — you can purchase your sign through the iDaph Store HERE. The deadline to order is Thursday, April 9th at midnight, and all proceeds benefit the Pardee Hospital Foundation.
If you purchased a sign last year and would like it displayed again, please drop it off at the Pardee Hospital Foundation offices (561 Fleming St, Hendersonville, NC 28739) by 5pm, Wednesday, April 22nd.
After the event, signs can be picked up at the race about 30–60 minutes after the finish or at Pardee Hospital Foundation on Monday between 9am and 5pm.
