🎊👟We are back with our Annual 5K Run for Parkinson's! 👟
We are thrilled to announce that the 2026 PJP Run for Parkinson's will be held on Saturday, October 31st, 2026, in beautiful Sequoyah Hills, Tennessee! Join us early or stay afterward to explore our engaging Health Exhibition. Since its inception in 2015, PJ Parkinson's Support's run has continually evolved, starting with our inaugural walk-a-thon and introducing the 5K run in 2019.
Parkinson's Support Groups from across East Tennessee are uniting for an event dedicated to raising awareness and highlighting local efforts to support individuals living with Parkinson's disease and their families. Together, we will champion this vital cause! Our goal for the 2026 Run for Parkinson's is to foster a deeper understanding of this progressive and degenerative nervous system disorder and to create a compassionate environment that provides support for patients and their families.
