LOCATION CHANGED TO SOUTH COUNTY REGIONAL PARK!
It's 5K time! Join us at the Hotcake Hustle 5k! Enjoy a beautiful professionally marked course with a special finish line party with pancakes!
We welcome all runners from our community to run with us. You will be so glad you joined the fun!
Anyone who has been to a Girls on the Run 5K knows that it is unlike any other running event. It is a celebration of and for the girls who are completing an 8 week season of Girls on the Run programming. By the day of the 5K, their enthusiasm is so unbridled that they are running around before the race! Positive energy abounds as the girls dance to warm-up music, get their hair “happied” and "tattoos" on their faces, and gather with their teammates to hold hands as they head to the starting line.
