Since so many of our 5K registrants are from outside Minnesota, we are partnering with running groups + stores in several cities to gather together in honor of Gabe.

Here's how this works:

- If you are in one of the cities listed, please register for the Pop-Up Brave Like Gabe 5K

- Check the box next to the city you'll be in on race day

- Pick up your race packet at your local store/group meet location

- Run together on race day!

As of July 25th, 2025 these are our confirmed cities - specifics days/times/locations coming soon!
