From the Organizer
Georgia Mae’s Peachy 5K is more than a race—it’s a movement of love, strength, and purpose.
Join us on Saturday, October 17, 2026 @ 8am at the Leitchfield Sports Complex for the Georgia Mae's Peachy 5K. This family-friendly event invites participants of all ages to walk or run in honor of children battling pediatric cancer, in memory of those we’ve lost, and in support of the fighters still in the fight. Whether you’re racing to the finish line or walking hand-in-hand with loved ones, every step taken is one step closer to advancing research for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).
All proceeds from the event will be donated to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, specifically benefiting AML blood cancer research—fueling hope for better treatments, improved outcomes, and ultimately, a cure.
