2026 Fairmount Fit Fest

Fairmount Fit Fest (formerly the Fairmount 5K) is back — with more ways for the whole family to join the fun! The 5K is one of Fairmount's favorite long-standing community traditions. 

The theme of the event this year is centered around K-Pop Demon Hunters -- celebrating strength, movement & music. 

Choose the 5K Run/Walk, the Fairmount Flash (under 1 mile), the Ninja Nation ninja warrior course, or combine a run + ninja for the full experience. Stick around after your event for music, treats, booths, and community fun. Proceeds support student and teacher resources at Fairmount Elementary.
