THE CURVIEST 5K ON THE PLANET…DAMNIT!
The Plus Strut™ is the first ever 5K run / walk for plus size women, in North America. This country is filled with 5K running events of all kind...but none like this. This event was created to encourage and embrace a demographic of women, that are seldom seen doing activities of this type. We're excited to curate a safe place where plus size women, can take on a challenge like this, and not only be cheered on for accomplishing it, but enriched by the energy, the diverse atmosphere, the tremendous support and the outpour of love, for getting it done. We want you to be forever changed, at the feeling you'll get, from crossing the finish line.
Don’t think this 5K is for you? You’re wrong — plus size women of all fitness levels, from beginner to pro, have participated, from all the world. This isn't the 5K where you'll be worried about pulling up the rear. Who cares if you walk or run slow, you're walking or running faster than everybody at home. No woman will be left behind -- the goal here is to finish.
Let’s make 2025 another historic year for the first ever 5K, for plus size women. We promise to make it so fun, you'll be first to register for the next one. And no, we didn’t forget about the medal. We can’t wait to bling you out, once you cross the finish line!
Please note: The Plus Strut 5K is a rain or shine event and nonrefundable
