Event Description

It’s back! A Bozeman running tradition, The Sweet Pea Run, is excited for another great race this year on Saturday, August 4th. This great community event is a liaison event of the Sweet Pea Festival and one of the oldest running races in Bozeman offering something for competitive runners to families looking for a fun event. With a start and finish for both a 5k and 10k race on Main Street, this is a great way to get out and see Bozeman. Whether its running past the Sweet Pea Festival grounds, by MSU or touring the historic downtown, you will get a great slice of Bozeman while you run. The Sweet Pea Run is also known for their great prizes. Top finishers from each race could receive cash prizes, running shoes, and other great accessories. With divisions in Masters, Open, Clydesdale and Athena as well as age group prizes there are many ways to head home with something from the race. The 5K has also been designated the regional championship race this year.  All of this is brought to you by the Big Sky Wind Drinkers (BSWD); Bozeman’s local running club. With a strong tradition of giving back to the community, this organization supports programs like Cancer Community Support, Road Runners Club of America, operates a year round community race series, and is a major sponsor for THRIVE'S  Girls On The Run program.  The money raised from this race helps support the BSWD to be great stewards of running and other related causes in Bozeman. Remember, please leave the dogs at home and if you are bringing a stroller, please line up toward the back.  We also have plenty of opportunities for you & your family to volunteer for walk-in registration and packet pick-up and also along the course on race day.  To sign up to volunteer:  www.SignUpGenius.com/go/409094CACAD28A20-sweet3
