Worship While You Run at HIA's 2026 Run for Hope
Staying motivated to run a 5K is no easy feat. To give you a leg up for the Run for Hope 5K in August — an event hosted by Hope is Alive centered on Finding Hope and Hope After Loss family support groups — we want to share an insider’s secret weapon: music.
Music isn’t just background noise — especially when it’s worship. It’s actually a proven tool for boosting your mental and emotional well-being and connecting you with the Spirit.
In fact, 75% of people use music to relieve stress, 65% say it improves their mood and mindset, 60% rely on it for motivation and energy, and 61% use it to process emotions and memories.

Because Run for Hope is a time to celebrate the loved ones we’ve lost to the impact of addiction, we’ve curated a special playlist to act as your anchor.
Our hope is that as you listen, you feel encouraged, energized, and connected with Jesus. We hope that it reminds you why you’re running, and that it gives you the strength to keep putting one foot in front of the other.
There is hope in the fight against addiction.
