Stay. 5k 2026

Description

Seek Running Company Stay. 5K is a community‑focused run built to bring people together, celebrate movement, and create real impact in Oklahoma. This year’s event will take place at Wintersmith Park in Ada, OK on September 19, 2026 , with half of all net earnings donated to suicide prevention initiatives at the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline .

This is our first year hosting the Stay. 5k Run, and we’re offering both a 2.5K and a 5K option. The 2.5K is one lap around the course—perfect for anyone who wants a shorter distance, is new to running, or simply prefers a lighter effort. The 5K will follow the same lap twice.

The course is beginner‑friendly and welcoming to all paces—runners, walkers, families, and anyone who wants to show up for a meaningful cause. Whether you’re chasing a personal best or taking your first steps into the running world, you’ll be part of something bigger than a race.
