The Girls on the Run of the High Country 5K is more than a race — it’s a powerful community celebration of confidence, connection, and courage. As the culminating event of our 10-week season with Girls on the Run of the High Country, this 5K represents the moment our girls cross a finish line they’ve been working toward all season long.

And we invite YOU to be part of it.

When community runners and walkers join us on race day, you’re doing more than logging miles — you’re showing our girls that their community believes in them. Your presence helps create an unforgettable atmosphere of encouragement, empowerment, and joy.

This event is open to everyone — seasoned runners chasing a PR, families pushing strollers, first-time 5K participants, and enthusiastic cheer squads. Whether you run, walk, skip, or hop, every step forward supports programs that inspire girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident.

By registering, you help:

Expand access to life-changing programming for local girls

Provide scholarships for participants in need

Strengthen a community that champions the next generation

So lace up, bring a friend, and join us at the starting line. Together, we’ll celebrate strength, resilience, and the limitless potential of every girl who crosses that finish line.

RUN. WALK. SKIP. HOP. Just MOVE FORWARD — for her. 💗🏃‍♀️
