1 Miles 5k Run Walk Wheelchair

Lace up those running shoes and dust off your boogie shoes for the 2nd annual Live Like Jack 5K and 1Mile Kids run followed by a post race dance party and arm wrestling competition.

Why are we doing this?

Our son, Jack was born with a birth defect called bilateral clubfoot which, if left untreated, can impair a child's ability to run, jump and play. Jack also has arthrogryposis and limb differences, which effect his upper extremities and joints.

Through our journey we realized that treatment for these conditions can be costly so we are raising funds to assist families with the cost of care associated with treatments, travel, therapies and adaptive equipment.

All funds raised through the Live Like Jack 5k will benefit awareness, research, treatment and management of clubfoot and other musculoskeletal conditions and limb differences. We also donate and support adaptive athletes and those with limb differences and musculoskeletal conditions in activities of sport and fitness.

Last year our proceeds went to Miracle Flights and Children's flight of hope to fly clubfoot and limb different children to treatment and surgeries. We also donated to Able Youth a non profit helping child wheelchair users navigate sports and daily living as well as Hope Walks a charity that treats clubfoot kids in low-income countries. This year we will be donating to Achilles International and other charities that align with our values.

We aim to support EVERYONE--including those with disabilities, impairments and differences-- in their journey to run, jump, play and ultimately LIVE like Jack.

We were told when Jack was a baby that he would "never be normal" and we say.... maybe "normal" isn't all it's cracked up to be.

IN A WORLD OF NORMAL, EMBRACE YOUR DIFFERENCES!

SWAG: All participants receive a top quality tee and fun finisher medal!


Walkers, children and pets welcome and encouraged!! Or make a donation and come hang out with us :)

*Chip timing by A matter of timing.


POST RACE PIZZA AND DANCE PARTY! along with snow cones, arm wrestling and other fun events for kids... and adults!

    Since 2017 C26 Triathlon has been coming to the beautiful city of Nashville for its amazing training environment. Athletes get to ride on the Natchez Trace Parkway, enjoy beautiful fun scenery in Percy Warner Park, and take part in challenging but informative pool sessions where we have the whole pool to ourselves.

    For 2026, our June Volume and Intensity Camp will be May 13-17. This camp has been an athlete favorite, so it is coming back... BUT... with some changes! :)

    We will have 3-4 coaches on hand for support, SAG, and athlete assistance but the format and structure of the camp will be more “session” driven than “instruction” driven; outside of our pool sessions. While coaches will be on hand for all sessions, the swim portion of the camp will be the only heavily instructed portion. This camp will be great for all levels of athletes looking to get in a lot of really solid work with awesome people. You will be around other awesome athletes with supported swim, rides and runs in the best training locations Nashville has to offer.

    After reading through a lot of feedback from past camps, it is obvious that more swimming and cycling is preferred. (Remember what you ask for :)). For the first time in camp history we have been granted access to have 3 straight days of pool work at Boost! You’ll bike at Natchez Trace, which is arguably one of the best cycling spots in the country. Smooth, challenging, and safe roads that run for 400 miles to Mississippi. Percy Warner Park is a staple at C26 Camp and gives you a beautiful, safe, and challenging run experience of around 600 feet of elevation for each 5.8 mile loop. We also share several meals together and will offer plenty of time to hang out with your new friends/teammates. The cherry on top this year is our final session on Sunday will be an Open Water Swim at Percy Preist Lake. The water will be perfect for wetsuits and a great opportunity to get in some open water swim instruction and tactics.

    This camp is for everyone and every ability!

    Over the course of camp athletes will complete approximately:

    • Pool Swim: 3.5-4hrs

    • Open Water Swimming: 90 mins

    • Cycling: 5-7hrs

    • Running: 2-4hrs

    You can expect 3 pool swims that have video for one session, 1 open water session, 3 rides on the Trace, 2 runs in PWP and one on Trace.

    Full Camp Schedule will be released 30 days before camp.
