Girls on the Run of the High Country 5K
The Girls on the Run of the High Country 5K serves as the culminating event of the program's 10 week curriculum and is held twice each year. The event is open to the general public as well as current and past Girls on the Run participants, coaches, running buddies and families. Current season participants have their 5K registration and fees included as part of the season program.
The course is an out and back route on a paved surface with no road crossings. Dogs and strollers are permitted on the course. Race day includes a Race Village with warm up activities and family oriented stations, and day of packet pick up and on site registration are available; participants must sign a waiver and receive a bib on race day.
Registration pricing and deadlines are published in advance. Participants who register by the early registration deadline are guaranteed an event t shirt; later registrants may not be guaranteed a shirt but shirts may be available for purchase at the event. The registration fee is treated as a donation to the Girls on the Run Scholarship fund and refunds are not provided. With a written request, registration may be transferable to a subsequent 5K.
Volunteer roles support a celebratory atmosphere and include positions such as cheerleaders, decorators and directional flag wavers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
