Rock Your Socks 5K - Latta, SC

Get ready to Rock Your Socks at the Rock Your Socks 5K on March 21, 2026 (3/21/26) at 9:00 AM in Latta, SC!

This fun and meaningful 5K is held in celebration of World Down Syndrome Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness and promoting inclusion. Participants are encouraged to wear mismatched socks—because chromosomes are shaped like socks, and individuals with Down syndrome have an extra copy of chromosome 21. Wearing different socks is a simple, powerful way to start conversations and celebrate differences.

Whether you walk, jog, or run, come out wearing your wildest, most colorful socks to show support, spread awareness, and stand for inclusion. A portion of the proceeds from this event will benefit the National Down Syndrome Society, helping support advocacy, education, and resources for individuals with Down syndrome and their families.

Upon conclusion of the course, you will receive a fun pair of socks in support of Down Syndrome awareness! Awards will be given to the top overall male, top overall female, and the top 2 males and females in each age group.

Grab your friends and family, rock those socks, and help us make a difference—because different is beautiful!
