Run 4 Recovery returns for its 11th year, uniting the community in support of hope, healing, and recovery. The event offers both 5K and 10K distances, welcoming participants of all experience levels to run or walk, and inviting volunteers and spectators to show their support. Proceeds benefit the mission of Recovery Alive at Temple City Church, focused on bringing hope and restoration to those who need it most. Registration for the 5K is $30 during the early bird period and $35 afterward. The 10K is $40 during the early bird period and $45 afterward. Entry fees are non-refundable. Every participant receives an official T-shirt and a finisher medal while supplies last. Packet pickup is available in advance and on race day. A virtual race option is available for those unable to attend in person, with results uploadable through RaceJoy. Virtual participants also receive a T-shirt and finisher medal, and may pick up shirts locally or have them shipped for an additional $5. Shirt delivery by race day is guaranteed for those who register by a stated cutoff, while later registrations will still receive shirts but delivery by race day is not guaranteed. Race day awards include the top two overall male and female finishers, the top two male and female finishers in each age group for both distances, the fastest team, and the largest team. Each mile helps move the mission forward and reminds participants and supporters that no one faces recovery alone.

Hosted by Wilson Community College in collaboration with the Eastern Carolina Corvette Club, this campus car and truck show brings the community together around a shared appreciation for cars and trucks. The event takes place at Wilson Community College.
