Girls on the Run Lancaster-Lebanon 5K
The event is an end of season celebratory 5K that gives program participants a tangible sense of accomplishment. The course distance is 3.1 miles. The council provides a commemorative medal to every program participant.
The 5K takes place at Millersville University, Biemesderfer Stadium, listed as a new location for the fall season. GOTR and Heart and Sole program participants are already registered for the 5K and do not need to register or pick anything up prior to the event. Shirt and bib pick up is scheduled at the GOTR office on Wednesday, November 11, Thursday, November 12, and Saturday, November 14, with additional pickup at Biemesderfer Stadium on race day.
Course maps are not posted online but will be shared with registered participants in an event guide and sent by text the week of the 5K. Safety procedures require every participant to wear an official race bib, assign a running buddy to each participant, and include course monitoring, head counts, and a trained safety plan for staff and volunteers. The council states the event is accessible for people with disabilities; participants may walk, run, push, or roll and designated accessible parking is available.
The event includes a Happy Hub with additional activities and merchandise sales. Volunteers support set up and tear down, registration, course marshalling, buddy duties, water stations, and cheer stations. National and local partners support the 5K.
