Girls on the Run of the Greater Piedmont 5K
Girls on the Run of the Greater Piedmont holds a community 5K event on Saturday, May 2, 2026, at Salisbury Community Park in Salisbury, North Carolina. The event includes a 5K Run and Run/Walk plus a Kid's Dash Fun Run for younger participants.
The Kid's Dash covers approximately 400 m and awards a special medal to each participant. Community runners receive a GOTR 5K T-shirt and a GOTR medal with registration. Alumni who have previously participated in Girls on the Run may register as alumni and receive a special alumni bib.
Proceeds from the event support the local Girls on the Run nonprofit. Funds are used to provide program fees and financial assistance so girls can take part in the after-school program. Girls on the Run is a non-competitive, after-school program for girls in grades 3 to 8; it combines running with social-emotional life skills and runs as a roughly 10-week program led by volunteer coaches, concluding with an end-of-season 5K.
The race program includes a race village and course information. Additional event details are listed under the race info menu on the event page. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
