Flathead Lake Run

Run for the love of Flathead Lake! This is an exclusive and professionally timed run, the only one along the shores of Flathead Lake! Featuring our popular 5k, in addition to a 10k and kid's 1-mile run!

A portion of the proceeds are donated to the Flathead Lakers, a locally operated, non-profit organization that works to protect and preserve Flathead Lake. Founded in 1958, the Flathead Lakers are a volunteer-based group working for clean water, healthy ecosystems, and lasting quality of life in the Flathead Watershed. Thanks to this event, the Flathead Lakers are more widely known and more awareness is buzzing about in regards to the importance of the continued health of our lake and thus surrounding communities. Flathead Lake is paramount not only to the many forms of life it serves, but to the success of the small communities surrounding it. Proceeds from this event ensure that not only the awareness continues to grow, but that the visitors it attracts stay for a night or two, buy coffee, beer and goods from our local, family-owned and operated businesses.

The 5k and 10k are open to all ages and families, and the kids 1-mile run is limited to 12 and under. Join us for 'Sunday Funday' in Volunteer Park on Sunday, July 23rd, 2023. Your contribution directly supports Flathead Lake and our beautiful community to ensure it may be enjoyed for generations to come. Join us after the race to celebrate your victory and community spirit with music and complimentary craft beer (and rootbeer!) from Tamarack Brewing Company, food trucks, and more!

Registration begins at 7AM | 10k begins at 8AM | 5k begins at 8:30AM | Kid's Run will begin about 9:30AM (whenever last 5k crosses over the finish line).
