Lace up for a heartfelt celebration of fitness and family at the annual Mothers Day 5K, taking place on Saturday, May 2, 2026, in scenic Belpre, Ohio. Hosted by Westbrook Health Services and the River City Runners & Walkers Club, this cherished community event offers a welcoming 5K run and walk, along with a lively children's race for the younger participants. The course winds through Belpre Civitan Park, starting and finishing at 1500 Blennerhassett Ave, offering a pleasant and accessible experience. Typical race day conditions in early May feature comfortable highs around 72°F and lows near 48°F, with a modest 18% chance of precipitation, creating ideal running weather.

What truly sets this event apart is its unique "Pump-N-Run" competition, adding an exciting twist for those seeking an extra challenge. Participants in the Pump-N-Run test their strength with a weightlifting component on Friday, May 2nd, at the Parkersburg YMCA, earning valuable time deductions for their Saturday 5K performance. This distinctive format, combined with the traditional 5K and a dedicated kids' race, ensures there’s an event for every family member. Registration for the children's race will be available on event day, making it easy for spontaneous participation.

Whether you're aiming for a personal best, enjoying a leisurely walk with loved ones, or looking to engage in a fun, multi-faceted athletic endeavor, the Mothers Day 5K provides a memorable experience. It’s more than just a race; it’s an annual tradition that brings the community together to celebrate moms and promote an active lifestyle in the heart of Belpre.
