4th Annual Landrum 5K to Benefit Lakeview Center

Runners, walkers, and community supporters are invited to participate in the 4th Annual Landrum 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, Oct. 10, 2026, shotgun start at 8 a.m. at Landrum’s downtown Pensacola office, 219 E. Garden Street. Proceeds from the event will benefit Lakeview Center, Northwest Florida’s leading behavioral health provider, serving more than 29,000 children and adults each year.

The Landrum 5K raises awareness about the important connection between physical and mental well‑being. According to the National Institutes of Health, regular exercise can help reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression while improving mood and cognitive function.

“We are proud of the good this event does for our community,” said Britt Landrum, III, CEO of Landrum. “Last year’s event raised $18,000 for behavioral health services at Lakeview Center, and that is a direct reflection of the generosity of everyone who participated and sponsored. We are grateful for their continued support.”

Lakeview Center offers more than 60 programs across Escambia, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa and Walton counties, including counseling, psychiatric services, residential and inpatient treatment, substance misuse treatment and 24/7 mental health crisis support.

“Every day, around 50 new people reach out to Lakeview Center looking for help,” said Allison Hill, CEO of LifeView Group, Lakeview Center’s parent company. “Support from partners like Landrum strengthens our ability to care for children, adults and families who are navigating mental illness or substance misuse. We’re incredibly grateful for this ongoing partnership and the difference it makes in our community.”

Early-bird registration is $45 through Aug. 29, 2026. Participants will enjoy refreshments, and top male and female finishers — along with age group winners — will receive awards.
