The Yellowstone Rim Runners organize weekly group runs that form the core of ongoing community connections for runners in Billings.

Weekly Sessions Anchor Local Participation

Yellowstone Rim Runners hold sessions every Saturday at 7 a.m. for a 10K distance beginning at the YMCA and every Wednesday at 6 p.m. for a 5-mile route. Fit4Mom adds Saturday morning runs from 8 to 9 a.m. These fixed schedules allow participants to join regularly without needing to track changing calendars.

Events Extend Club Connections Throughout the Year

The same local networks support larger races that draw in club members and newcomers alike. The 47th Annual Heart & Sole Run & Walk occurs on Saturday, June 20, 2026, and includes a 10K RRCA State Championship at 7:45 a.m. along with 5K and 2-mile options. The Billings Skyline Half Marathon & 30K follows on Sunday, May 31, 2026, with the 30K starting at 7:45 a.m. after packet pickup the prior day. The Forged Fitness Race 2026 takes place on Saturday, June 27, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. at 100 S 24th St W, while the Run For Her 5K/10K is set for Saturday, September 12, 2026, at Faith Chapel located at 517 Shiloh Road and offers both in-person and virtual formats.

Club members use these dates to coordinate training together ahead of each event. The structure keeps the same people meeting week after week while also welcoming others who enter the races.

Registration Details Support Ongoing Involvement

One listed race carries a registration fee of approximately $54.40. Packet pickup occurs on May 30 for the May 31 event. These practical steps reduce barriers for people who want to move from weekly club runs into the bigger competitions.

Interested runners can locate the Yellowstone Rim Runners and Fit4Mom through the listed race registration sites to begin attending the Saturday and Wednesday sessions. The same sites provide entry details for the 2026 races so participants can plan around the established club calendar.
