Paint it Pink 5k Fun Run/Walk 2026

The Paint it Pink 5k Fun Run/Walk is an October 5k held in Gardnerville, Nevada. The race begins and ends at Heritage Park, near the Ezell Street entrance. This event is part of the We Run This Town fun run/walk series. Separate registrations are available for participants aged 11 and older, those aged 10 and younger, and a virtual 5k option that can be completed within two weeks of the live event. The course winds through Gardnerville, incorporating the Martin Slough trail. Participants are encouraged to wear pink. Five dollars from each registration fee is donated to the cancer treatment centers at Carson Valley Health and Carson Tahoe Health. Children aged 10 and under may pre-register at no cost. The virtual option still contributes to the series standings and earns eligibility for its limited edition t-shirt.
