About the Event

The North Boroughs 5K and 1 Mile Walk is a fun community event in the boroughs of Bellevue and Avalon. All proceeds from the race stay in the community with the proceeds split between Bellevue Forward, a local non-profit and the Northgate Cross County Boosters. Bellevue Forward is dedicated to driving economic growth and fostering cultural engagement within our community. We are committed to revitalizing Bellevue by supporting local businesses, promoting sustainable development, and creating vibrant spaces where residents and visitors can connect, thrive, and experience the unique charm of our borough. Through collaboration and innovation, Bellevue Forward aims to build a prosperous, inclusive, and dynamic future for all who wish to live, work, play, learn, and thrive in Bellevue. The Northgate Cross County Boosters provide the majority of funding to keep the team running. The money raised from the North Boroughs 5K supports both the middle school and high school runners. It will be utilized for team snacks and meals, spirit wear, end-of-season banquets, training gear and much more.

1 Mile Walk starts at 8 am. The 5k run/walk starts at 8:15 am.

About Pittsburgh

Learn more about the host city, Pittsburgh.

The pleasure of Pittsburgh remains a well-kept secret. Though not built up by reputation, the city's unique combination of bridges, steep hills, and broad rivers make it one of the most naturally scenic cities in the country. Cheap food and beer abound in this true sports town and the locals are amazingly friendly. A city of about 303,000 (2021) in Allegheny County, at the center of a metro area of about 2.4 million in southwestern Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh is situated at the confluence of three rivers: the Monongahela and Allegheny Rivers, which meet to form the Ohio River. The city's unique terrain has resulted in an unusual city design and a hodge-podge of unique neighborhood "pockets" with diverse ethnic and architectural heritage. Pittsburgh has a rich history and, for its size, an unusual array of cultural treasures, largely thanks to the wealth that was generated when Pittsburgh was a hub of industry.
