About the BFF 5K
Every spring we host a community race through downtown Burnsville that’s family-friendly, fun, and fitness-oriented. At PATH, we know developing healthy habits at a young age is a great way to make them stick. That’s why youth under the age of 18 run the Fit Families 5K for free! We want kids to learn sooner rather than later that exercise isn’t just good for you, it’s a lot of fun, too!
Friends, family, and the whole community are invited to cheer on our runners as they make their way through the town. People often dress in costumes, ring bells, blow bubbles, and give high fives to support the racers along our USATF certified 5K course. Together, we all make sure the event has equal amounts of healthy competition, athletic camaraderie, and FUN.
We are grateful to the many volunteers who help us make this event a success every year. You are helping keep our community strong and healthy and enabling PATH to continue the work we do.
