Run with Purpose. Live Fit with Hawthorne.
This October, we’re moving for more than just miles—we’re moving for meaning. The Live Fit Challenge is here, and across North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, and Texas, Hawthorne residents and team members are lacing up for local charity races.
What Makes It Special
The Live Fit Challenge isn’t about being the fastest or the fittest—it’s about progress, connection, and impact. Every stride supports causes that matter, from Breast Cancer Awareness Month events to local nonprofits creating real change in our neighborhoods. Together, our collective miles become something powerful: a ripple effect of wellness and generosity.
How It Works
Find a local race, listed below, whether it’s a 5K (3.1 miles), a one-mile fun run, or another distance that works for you. Sign up, join team HAWTHORNE at registration, and let’s move together for something bigger. Each participant chooses their own event, but every step builds momentum for causes that count.
Hawthorne team members can check internal networks for additional details related to races and teaming up with sister communities. It’s another way we come together—running, walking, and giving back as one.
Why You’ll Love It
- Stay active and embrace healthier habits.
- Connect with neighbors and Hawthorne team members beyond the day-to-day.
- Support meaningful local charities with every mile.
Living the Difference
At Hawthorne, we believe home should be more than four walls. The Fall Live Fit Challenge is a reflection of our Live It culture—wellness, connection, and giving back, all rolled into one unforgettable experience. Every mile run, every step walked, is part of something greater: our ongoing commitment to community impact through Hawthorne Giving Back.
So lace up, find your local race, and be part of something bigger this fall. Together, we’ll make every stride count—for ourselves, our neighbors, and the causes that matter most.
