The North Boroughs 5K and 1 Mile Walk brings the Bellevue and Avalon communities together for a fun, high-energy event. We keep all race proceeds right here in the community, splitting them between Bellevue Forward, a local nonprofit, and the Northgate Cross Country Boosters.

Bellevue Forward drives economic growth and sparks cultural engagement throughout our community. We work to revitalize Bellevue by supporting local businesses, promoting sustainable development, and creating vibrant spaces where residents and visitors can connect, thrive, and enjoy the borough’s unique charm. Through collaboration and innovation, we build a prosperous, inclusive, and dynamic future for everyone who lives, works, plays, learns, and grows in Bellevue.

The Northgate Cross Country Boosters provide essential funding to keep the team running strong. Funds raised from the North Boroughs 5K directly support middle school and high school runners by covering team snacks and meals, spirit wear, end-of-season banquets, training gear, and more.

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