Hope in Motion: Run, Remember, Reclaim

Honor a Life. Celebrate Recovery. Fuel Hope.

The Turning Point Center of Addison County is proud to host our First Annual “Hope in Motion” 5K and 1K Walk/Run and Wellness Fair, a powerful event bringing our community together to remember those we've lost to addiction, celebrate those in recovery, and support those still fighting.

Event Date: Sunday, September 28th, 2025

Location: 55 Collins Drive, Middlebury, Vermont

Race Start Time: 9:00 AM

This is more than just a race, it’s a movement of remembrance, connection, and hope. We invite you to donate in memory of someone you’ve lost to addiction or in honor of someone you love in recovery and, if you wish, send us their photo and a short message about what makes them so special. These tributes will be displayed along the race route as part of Stories in Motion; a living, visual narrative of lives and journeys that inspire us to keep moving forward.

Why We’re Running

Every step we take is for a friend, a sibling, a parent, a child; someone who matters.

Addiction has touched nearly every family in our community. This event is a chance to walk or run in memory of those we’ve lost, to stand beside those still struggling, and to celebrate the courage of those in recovery. Together, we can turn pain into purpose and keep hope alive.
