About this race

5k Run/Walk
All fitness levels welcome!

Join us for our 5th Annual Run for Recovery 5K, a timed run/walk open to all fitness levels, held on a fast, flat course in scenic Hines Park. Cash prizes will be awarded to the top three male and female finishers.

The event raises funds for our Help a Sister Out program. That pays half of the registration fee to support women in 12-step recovery programs who need financial assistance to attend the Women in Motion retreat.

What’s included in your registration:

  • T-shirt for participants registered by April 12 (shirt not guaranteed after this date)
  • Finisher medal for every runner and walker
  • Refreshments at start and finish
  • Day-of registration available ($45)


By participating, you’re helping remove financial barriers for women on their recovery journey — and making our community stronger.

Register today and help us cross the finish line together!
