29th Annual Smith McMillan 5K - 2026

The Smith McMillan 5K begins Homecoming Weekend at WFS with a free Kids Dash preceding the 8:30 a.m. main race. This annual 5K, in its 29th year, is run in memory of siblings Jonathan Bacon Smith and Wendy Smith McMillan. Race proceeds benefit the financial aid endowment established in their names. The event is designed for the school community and competitive runners alike. Awards are presented to the top overall male and female finishers, along with top alumni, faculty/staff, and walkers. Age-group prizes are available for participants from children 8 and under up to runners 80 and over. Long sleeve shirts are provided for pre-registered participants. The free kids race offers families a reason to attend before the 5K begins.
