About the Event

Join Us for a 5K Like No Other!
This isn’t just a run — it’s a celebration. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or lacing up for the first time, you’ll leave with memories that last long after you cross the finish line.

Who Can Participate?
Everyone! Runners, walkers, families, and fans — all are welcome. Whether you're crossing the finish line or cheering from the sidelines, you’ll be part of a day filled with joy, community, and inspiration.

This isn’t your typical 5K. Here’s what’s in store:

Keepsake Finisher Medal (brand new!)
Unisex Cotton/Poly Race Shirt
Fun glow items to help you shine
High-energy fun for all ages
Activities and giveaways from fun community partners
GOTR Merch Tent stocked with swag (cash and cards accepted)

After the run, stick around for the Finisher’s After Party featuring:

Live music by Charlie Pace
A surprise finish to light up the evening ✨

The Girls on the Run Experience
This event is the season finale for over 500 girls completing the 8-week Girls on the Run program. Expect dancing, happy hair, face “tattoos,” and proud teammates cheering each other on. Their energy is infectious — and you’ll feel it every step of the way.

Girls and coaches in our program do NOT need to register for this event.  (GOTR girls will receive their shirts and bibs from team coaches the morning of the 5K.)

SORRY - no refunds or rain dates.
