About this run
The Hustle for Hope 5K is more than a race. It is a morning of running, walking, cheering, and coming together to support the children, young adults, and families served by the Elaine Clark Center. Now in its 17th year, the Hustle for Hope takes runners and walkers through downtown Chamblee on a flat, welcoming course that is great for experienced runners, casual runners, families, and anyone looking for a meaningful reason to get moving. For more than 55 years, the Elaine Clark Center has provided innovative education, therapeutic care, and support for children and young adults with physical and intellectual disabilities. Our programs serve individuals from infancy through age 30, helping them learn, grow, build relationships, gain independence, and participate more fully in their community. That work takes a community. When you register for the Hustle for Hope, you are not simply paying for a race bib. You are helping provide the teachers, caregivers, programs, scholarships, transportation, experiences, and support that ECC families rely on every day. So come run fast. Come walk with friends. Bring your family. Bring your coworkers. Form a team. Chase a PR or just enjoy a Saturday morning in Chamblee. However you cross the finish line, you will be helping the Elaine Clark Center continue creating a place where children and young adults of all abilities can learn, belong, and thrive. Run for a time. Run for fun. Run for hope. For more information about race course, race day timeline, and sponsorship, please click here.
