Girls on the Run of the High Country 5K
The Girls on the Run of the High Country 5K is held twice yearly as the culminating event for the ten week Girls on the Run curriculum. The event is open to the general public, past participants, running buddies and families; current season Girls on the Run and Heart & Sole participants and their coaches have the 5K included as part of their season program.
The course is an out and back route on a paved surface with no road crossings. Dogs and strollers are permitted. Participants must sign a waiver and receive a race bib on the day of the event.
Registration fees and apparel details are set by date: registrations from May 2026 through November 16, 2026 are $15 and include an event t shirt; registrations from November 17 through December 6, 2026 are $20 and t shirts are not guaranteed. T shirts may be available to purchase at the event for $5 cash. Race registration fees are treated as a donation to the Girls on the Run Scholarship Fund; refunds are not issued. With a written request, registration fees may be transferable to the next 5K.
The organizer states the event will be attempted in rain, shine or snow but may be canceled if road conditions are unsafe or severe weather such as lightning or ice is predicted. Volunteers fill roles such as cheer squads, decor and directional flag wavers to support participants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
