GO FAR 1- Mile Fun Run
GO FAR Club Members: Please Read! 🏃♀️ The 1-Mile Fun Run is a separate event from the GO FAR 5K. If you are a GO FAR Club Member, your club registration is for the 5K—please make sure you select the 5K registration option when registering. While club members can participate in the 1-Mile Fun Run, registering for the 1-Mile instead of the 5K may cause confusion with your club participation and race-day check-in. If you're a GO FAR Club Member and intend to run the 5K, please do not register for the 1-Mile Fun Run.
GO FAR 5K (CLUB MEMBERS ONLY)

During registration, you will later be asked to select the school or club you are registering with. Not sure which event to choose? If you participate in GO FAR through your school and plan to run with your club on race day, the 5K is the correct registration option for you!
