About the event

Club Kokomo Roadrunners and Palmer's Jewelry will be hosting the second annual Be a SHEro 5K Run/Walk on March 9, 2024, in Kokomo. The SHEro 5K is a  fundraiser and women's only race celebrating International Women’s Day (March 8th) while encouraging healthy activity in our community. We’re ready to make this a fun and empowering event.

Registration Costs: $20 until December 31st, 2023, $25 until February 11th, 2024, and $30 After February 12th, 2024 until Race Day. Sorry, but there are NO REFUNDS since this is a fundraising event to benefit our local domestic violence shelter.
