Stepping Into Spring 5K

Step into the excitement of spring at the inaugural Stepping Into Spring 5K, set for Saturday, March 21, 2026, in scenic Morgantown, WV. This brand-new event, hosted by Get Moving! Inc., offers a refreshing 5K run and walk experience that culminates in an unforgettable finish. Participants will begin their journey near the Mylan Puskar Football Facilities at West Virginia University and experience the thrill of crossing the finish line directly inside the iconic Milan Puskar Stadium, running onto the field itself. This unique stadium finish promises an exhilarating close to your race.

Designed to be family-friendly and accessible to all ages and fitness levels, the Stepping Into Spring 5K encourages healthy habits and community spirit. In addition to the main 5K, younger participants can join the Kids Fun Run held within the stadium, where children aged 12 and under are invited to dress up in costumes and race across the field. Their entry is a heartwarming donation of a new stuffed animal, which will be given to pediatric patients at a local children's hospital.

As you embrace the arrival of spring, expect typical race day conditions with comfortable highs around 56F and lows near 35F, accompanied by a low 15% chance of precipitation. Beyond the personal achievement, your participation supports Get Moving! Inc.'s mission to foster an active lifestyle, with proceeds directly funding future community fitness initiatives across West Virginia.
