5k with ME

🏃‍♀️ Race Overview

This is more than a race, it’s a celebration of sisterhood, wellness, and community. We’re bringing even more energy and inclusivity to next year’s event with two exciting additions:

👩‍👧 Sisterhood Challenge (Group Challenge)

• Invite your sisters: We're challenging YOU to invite your sisters to join the movement! Whether they’re friends, family, co-workers, or part of your Masjid, Church or Synagogue, build your team and show up strong.
• Biggest group perks: The biggest group will win special perks - more details coming soon, so start rallying your crew.
• Deadline: Deadline to win is 12/31/26.

🏅 1 Mile Race Options

• Accessibility: We’re introducing a 1 mile race to make the experience even more accessible to everyone.
• Perfect for everyone: This is your chance to cross the finish line with confidence, whether you’re just getting started or simply want a shorter distance.
• Community Fun: The 1 Mile is perfect for new runners, families, and anyone who wants to be part of the celebration without going the full 5K.

🎉 NEW Cheer Squad

We’re introducing a powerful new way to be part of race day, because showing up for your sister is just as meaningful as crossing the finish line.

• Participation: Cheer Squad is for those who will line the course and finish line.
• Encouragement: You will encourage, uplift, and energize participants.
• Spirit: Be part of the spirit that carries runners forward.
• Benefits: Cheer Squad participants will receive a special cheer shirt, a place along the course and at the finish line, and a role at the heart of the sisterhood experience.
