The Angel Dash, set to take place on October 3, 2026, in Carrollton, Georgia, invites runners and walkers alike to honor the memory of babies who have passed too soon. This heartfelt community event combines a timed 5K run with a moving 1-mile memorial walk, both benefiting Rachel's Gift—a nonprofit dedicated to supporting families during pregnancy loss and providing resources for those affected by infant mortality. Participants will navigate through Carrollton’s picturesque streets, where the warm autumn colors of fall foliage create an intimate setting. The route weaves through local parks and residential areas, offering a serene atmosphere that encourages reflection and remembrance. As runners and walkers progress along their chosen course, they are reminded of the precious lives lost too early. The event promises to be both challenging and uplifting, with volunteers stationed at key points throughout the race providing support and encouragement. A memorial garden will serve as a poignant tribute, offering a space for quiet contemplation and personal remembrance. Post-race refreshments will include hot beverages and light snacks, ensuring participants can refuel while sharing stories of loss and hope. All proceeds from this meaningful event directly benefit Rachel's Gift in its mission to provide support services and resources to families facing pregnancy loss and infant mortality. By participating, you contribute not only to a memorable race experience but also to making a positive impact on the lives of those in need.
