Share the Love 5K Presented By: Bowling Green Running Club
Love is in the air… and on the trail!
Join the Bowling Green Running Club on Valentine’s Day 2026 for a heartwarming morning of fitness and community. Whether you are running with a sweetheart, walking with your best friend, or flying solo to beat your personal best, we want you to come "Share the Love" with us.
❤️ The Course There is no better place to run on Valentine's Day than Lovers Lane! Participants will enjoy a simple, flat course consisting of almost two laps on the gravel loop around the Lovers Lane Soccer Complex. It is a beginner-friendly terrain perfect for runners and walkers of all paces.
❤️ The Cause This isn't just about burning off those chocolate calories; it's about hearts helping hearts. Each year, we support a different local charity. We are proud to announce that 100% of the proceeds from this event will benefit Glory Baby Ministry.
Come dressed in your best pink, red, or cupid attire and start your holiday with miles that matter!
