Our 5K event is open to the public and it's a great race for kids and families, or you can register to run alongside a girl as RUNNING BUDDY!
WHAT IS A RUNNING BUDDY? A parent/family member, teacher, family friend or community volunteer. We need the happiest and most energetic buddies in Utah. IS THAT YOU?
THE JOB OF A RUNNING BUDDY is to be by a girl’s side either running, walking or skipping at her pace, encouraging her to do her best, but also recognizing and respecting her limits. Running Buddies will be paired with a girl that fits their own running abilities to ensure a perfect fit!
YOU COMMIT TO RUN TWICE with your buddy, once at her practice 5K (about 2-3 weeks before the June 2nd 5k Celebration Event at Sugarhouse Park) and the day of the 5K Event. Each school site has a different practice day/time and these are listed on our website under ‘program locations’.
REGISTER FOR OUR JUNE 2nd 5K EVENT, pay the $30 event fee and choose the ‘Running Buddy’ option. Either choose a school that you would like to run with or select the ‘choose for me’ option and we will contact you to match you up with the school that works best with your schedule. If you would just like to participate in the race, not as a running buddy, you can also register online today for $30! Register today!
QUESTIONS? Please contact our Running Buddy Coordinator: Ivy Denihan at ivy@girlsontherunutah.org. Or see our 5K Race Flyer here.
