🎉 Event Overview
The Plus Strut™ is the first-ever 5K run/walk exclusively for plus-size women in North America, and we're back to make 2025 bigger, better, and even more empowering! In a country filled with countless 5K events, The Plus Strut stands out as a celebration of movement, health, and community for women who are rarely seen participating in events like this. We’re dedicated to creating a safe, welcoming space where plus-size women can take on this challenge, feel the incredible energy, embrace the diverse atmosphere, and be uplifted by the tremendous support and love. Our goal is for you to feel forever changed by the sense of pride and accomplishment you’ll gain as you cross the finish line.
