5K Celebration
The Girls on the Run Western Montana Spring 5K is a season closing, celebratory event on Saturday May 22, 2027 at Depot Park in Whitefish, MT. The event marks the end of the program season and gives participants a tangible sense of accomplishment.
The course is a 5K, which is 3.1 miles. The event is presented as a fun, non competitive celebration where participants may walk, run, push or roll at their own pace. While some participants finish in about 25 minutes, most complete the course in roughly 30 to 50 minutes. Every registered participant receives a commemorative 5K medal.
The council provides safety and accessibility measures. Race bibs are required for all participants and liability waivers are part of registration. The council assigns running buddies to accompany participants for the full course; a parent or guardian may serve as a running buddy. Designated parking and accommodations are available so participants with disabilities can take part safely.
Volunteers support setup, tear down, cheer stations, running buddy roles and Inspiration Village. Volunteers appointed through the council are required to complete a background check. The event also includes merchandise sales and family oriented activities such as face painting, water stations and happy hair stations. A site based 5K takes place at the same location where a team practiced during the season. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
