Mother’s
Day 5K
Celebrating Mother’s Day 2020 — together, but apart!
Thank you to all who entered the Virtual Mother’s Day 5K! We exceeded our registration limit for the virtual event, even after we opened up additional spots. We’re extremely honored and grateful to have so many caring and loyal participants!
The Mother’s Day 5K has always been about women coming together for fitness and fun. That hasn’t changed! Congratulations to all of you who did a 3.1 mile run or walk on your own this year, whenever and however you managed to accomplish it!
Though we couldn’t run/walk together this year, we did our best to celebrate together online! Thanks to all who shared selfies, stories, or screenshots on social media, tagged #VirtualMD5K or #kcemd5k.
All who posted by May 20 will be entered into a drawing for gift certificates from Dick’s Sporting Goods. We’ll contact you soon if you’ve won a prize.
Stay safe and active! We can’t wait to see you in person at next year’s event!

For 2020, our artwork is once again by the talented Jane Smeltzer, who loves bold designs in exuberant colors. Here’s the new artwork!
