Global Running Day
Run/Walk-A-Thon

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3 @ 7 A.M. - 7 P.M.

A 12-Hour Celebration of Movement & Community Impact

​

Join us for a high-energy, come-as-you-are celebration of Global Running Day—an event that invites everyone to get active and connect through the power of movement. Whether you run, walk, or simply show up to be part of the community, this day is about more than miles. It’s about coming together to support a healthier, stronger Twin Cities.

​

Drop in anytime between 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM! Stay for a 5K loop, an hour, or all 12 - we’ll be celebrating all day long!

​
