Girls on the Run of Dayton Virtual Spring 5k

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 a ten-week season of Girls on the Run and Heart&Sole 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 "happy hair" and faces painted, and gather with their teammates to hold hands as they head to the starting line. Our 5K is that will bring a smile to your face.

Due to the continued concerns with COVID-19 and mass gathering restrictions, this year's Spring 5k will be a virtual run.  Runners will run a 5k anytime over the weekend of May 8 and May 9 at the location of their choice.  They can post results to an official results website and even upload pictures of their special event.  All registered by April 26 will be guaranteed a race packet containing a GOTR 5K shirt, medal, button and 5K music playlist + the opportunity to send an inspirational message to a GOTR girl that will be completing her Site-Based 5K the week after our virtual weekend.

All race packs will be directly mailed to participants at the address they use on their registration.
