Girls on the Run Presented by IAAP: 5K Run/Walk
About the race
Join Girls on the Run for our Fall 2026 season 5K as our 15-year anniversary celebration continues!
Our mission is to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running.
Completing the 5K gives the girls a tangible understanding of the confidence that comes through accomplishment as well as a framework for setting and achieving life goals. Crossing the finish line is a defining moment when the girls realize that even the seemingly impossible IS possible.

The course
Location
City insight: San Antonio
San Antonio is the second-most populous city in Texas, located in the southern part of the state and serving as the county seat of Bexar County. Its name, Spanish for Saint Anthony, was given by a Spanish expedition in 1691, and it had 1.43 million residents at the 2020 census. Summers are hot and humid with mild winters, so spring and autumn are the best seasons to race.
