A Run For The Berries 5K

Get ready to lace up for A Run For The Berries 5K on Saturday, May 9, 2026, in the heart of Stilwell, Oklahoma. This community-focused event kicks off from the scenic Edna M. Carson Stilwell Community Park, offering runners a chance to explore a certified 5K course. As Stilwell is renowned for its rich strawberry history and annual festival, this race embraces that unique local flavor, promising an experience that's both invigorating and deeply connected to the town's heritage.

The 5K race begins at 7:30 AM, with a 1-mile fun run/walk starting earlier at 7:00 AM, making it a perfect morning outing for all ages and fitness levels. Participants can expect typical race day conditions in early May to be pleasant, with highs around 74°F and lows around 52°F, and a relatively low 22% chance of precipitation, creating ideal running weather. As you push towards the finish line, you'll be supporting a great cause, as the event proudly benefits the Stilwell Kiwanis Club.

Whether you're aiming for a personal best on the certified course or simply looking to enjoy a vibrant community atmosphere, A Run For The Berries 5K delivers. Those who cross the finish line will receive a commemorative shirt. For those unable to join in person, a virtual 5K option is also available, ensuring everyone can be part of this special Stilwell tradition.
