Just for the Helena of It
Just for the Helena of It is a fall running event in Helena, Montana, organized by the Treasure State Runners, a local nonprofit that raises funds for health-related charities through footraces.
The program on the event date includes in-person races and virtual options. In-person courses include a half marathon and a 10K that run out-and-back through Helena's historic and scenic areas, a 5K at Prickly Pear Land Trust's Tenmile Creek Park that highlights Montana big sky, and a Kids Mini Mile that follows a short loop adjacent to the finish line celebration. Virtual race entries are offered for half marathon, 10K, and 5K distances.
An after-race event will be held at the finish area. The organizer notes that fall weather in Montana can be unpredictable and that participants should be prepared for rain, shine, or snow.
The event has supported Helena charities over recent years, reporting a total of $121,000 raised across four years. Organizers have specified fundraising goals of $40,000 or more for The Friendship Center and $10,000 or more for Girls Thrive.
