About This Activity

The 2nd annual Zachary M. Negrón Unforgettable 5K Trail Race occurs Sunday, April 6, 2025. This race is a family-friendly event with a competitive edge. The 5K is timed with a chip for those wanting some competition! This year, we are making it possible for the youngest runners to participate by including in the day’s festivities with a Fun Run, which will allow those in second grade or younger to run.

We run in honor of two causes. The Unforgettable Foundation of Tennessee assists at-risk and grieving families with finances to help them afford a timely and dignified funeral for their children. The Zachary M. Negrón Memorial Scholarship gives scholarships to a select number of students at Georgia-Cumberland Academy who mirror the traits of perseverance and hard work, characteristics Zachary embraced as a student at GCA to accomplish his goals.

Entry Fee

Please register by March 2 to ensure receiving a t-shirt of the size you request. For later registrations, we will do our best to accommodate your request, but cannot guarantee it. We encourage all participants to pre-register as we are trying to not have to take "day-of" registrants. This helps us have enough medals and t-shirts available for everyone.
