Share The Love 5K Run/Walk

Lace up your running shoes and spread some love at the annual Share The Love 5K Run/Walk, presented by the Bowling Green Running Club! Taking place on Valentine's Day, Saturday, February 14, 2026, in Bowling Green, KY, this event offers a heartwarming morning of fitness and community for runners and walkers of all paces. The 5K distance winds through a simple, flat course consisting of almost two laps on the gravel loop around the Lovers Lane Soccer Complex. This beginner-friendly terrain is ideal whether you're aiming for a personal best, enjoying a leisurely walk with friends, or running with a sweetheart.

Beyond the scenic (and aptly named) Lovers Lane course, what truly makes this race special is its charitable mission. One hundred percent of the proceeds from this event benefit Glory Baby Ministry, a local organization dedicated to supporting families grieving through miscarriage, stillbirth, or early infant loss. Participants are encouraged to embrace the Valentine's Day spirit by donning their best pink, red, or cupid-themed attire, adding a festive touch to the proceedings. With typical race day conditions seeing highs around 50°F and lows near 30°F, along with a modest 17% chance of precipitation, it promises to be invigorating weather for a run or walk.

The Share The Love 5K is more than just a race; it's an opportunity to connect with the community and make a meaningful impact. Starting promptly at 9:00 AM CST from the Lovers Lane Soccer Complex, the event also features awards for overall male and female finishers, as well as top placements across various five-year age groups. While shirts can be added to your registration, the true reward comes from sharing the love and supporting a vital cause in Bowling Green.
