Let this information guide you for the 2025 WNC Girls on the Run Spring 5k!
- Free parking is available onsite.
- Please ensure you arrive at least 30 minutes prior to the event to warm up and ensure everyone in your group is checked in at registration.
- Race Day Timeline:
- 8:00 am coaches arrive and Race Village opens
- 9:00 am – team stretches and GOTR Dance Party
- 9:20 am – teams line up at the start line
- 9:30 am – GOTR 5K begins!
- Early Packet Pick Up for Community Runners and Running Buddies: Saturday, May 4th at the Asheville Outlet Food Court from Noon – 3 pm. This will make the day-of check-in move quicker on race day so if you’re able to stop by, we encourage it.
- Day-of packet pick up will open at 8 am on race day in the registration tent.
- GOTR Girls will check in with their coaches on race day for their race gear. There is no early packet pick up option for program participants.
- The 5K will be cancelled only for thunder and lightning, unsafe driving conditions or other hazardous conditions. This decision would be made by 5:00 am the morning of the event. Please check your email if there may be cause for cancellation.
- What to wear? Running clothes but make it fun! Girls on the Run is so much fun and we want our 5K to bring that experience full-circle for our GOTR Girls so if you have fun sparkles, tutus, hats, bright colors that you don’t get to wear often enough – now is your time to shine!
