Frosty 5K
Helena, MT
The Frosty 5K is jingling its way back and is slated to be held Dec. 12 near the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Montana building in Helena. The course will start and end at the BCBSMT building, while taking people through the Mountain View Meadows community. This is an in-person race, but not to worry, there is a virtual option as well. Give yourself an early present and celebrate the holidays by participating in our Frosty 5K. Registration is only $25 and the race will be capped at 600 people. Beanies This Year! Runners will receive a commemorative race beanie, medal, and race bib on race day as part of their race registration. The beanie design will be released later this fall. Back To Mountain View Meadows! Due to how popular the Frosty 5K has become, we moved the course last year to give people more room to run and provide a single-loop race. The Frosty 5K now starts and finishes near the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Montana building, and runners go through the Mountain View Meadows community. Check out the new course by clicking here. Supporting Montana's Health: All registration dollars go to support the Caring Foundation of Montana, which helps provide access to preventive health care services to Montanans. These services include vaccines, oral and vision screenings, sports physicals, and other health screenings. Should I Run In December? Of course you should! It's a great way to cap your fitness goals for the year and give yourself one final push before all those holiday cookies.
