About the race
Girls on the Run San Diego holds an end-of-season celebratory 5K at De Anza Cove in San Diego on December 13, 2026. The event marks the conclusion of the program season and gives participants a tangible sense of accomplishment by completing a 3.1-mile course.
Every program participant who completes the 5K receives a commemorative medal, and all 5K runners receive a t-shirt. The event includes additional activities and support on course such as water stations, cheer stations, bib blinging, and happy hair stations. The course is presented as accessible for people with disabilities; participants may walk, run, push, or roll at their own pace and designated accessible parking spots are available.
Safety measures include required race bibs for all participants and encouragement for participants to have a Running Buddy for the entire course. Parents or guardians may serve as Running Buddies. Liability waivers are part of all 5K registration forms. Parking at the site is limited and attendees are asked to consider carpooling; organizers also recommend arriving early to allow time for warm-up and check-in.
Volunteers support setup, registration, course marshalling, water stations, cheer stations, and other event operations. Program participants and coaches are noted as already registered for this council 5K. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
