Girls on the Run Minnesota 5K Week means ALL the volunteer power! This Saturday and Sunday more than 6,000 runners will cross the 5K finish line and this magical celebration wouldn’t be possible without many, many volunteers showing up for Minnesota girls. U.S. Bank Bank kicked off 5K week this morning by prepping medals and 3,000 5K Buddy bibs! These are for the adult runners who complete the 5K alongside their girl, cheering her on the whole way. Thank you U.S. Bank for providing the volunteer and financial support to fuel this event! (fb)
