5k Fun Run x Mt Ascension Brewing

The 5k Fun Run x Mt Ascension Brewing is an untimed community event held in Helena, Montana. Part of the 2026 Montana Brewery Running Series, the event follows a scenic 5 km route through the surrounding neighborhood. The course is open to the public, meaning roads are not closed to traffic, and participants are required to follow all traffic laws.

The event is designed for a variety of paces, allowing participants to run, walk, or jog. The route is clearly marked and both starts and ends at the Mt Ascension Gastropub. Registration includes several amenities and post-race activities:

  • 5 km distance
  • One craft beer at the finish line (or a non-alcoholic beverage for those under 21)
  • Choice of a collector's pint glass or seasonal promotional item
  • Entry into a prize drawing for merchandise and beer
  • Access to music, games, and partner giveaways

The event operates on a rain or shine basis. Participants are advised that there is no bag check available on-site. While dogs and strollers are permitted, owners must follow the specific policies of the host venue. A portion of the proceeds from the registration fees is donated to local nonprofit organizations.
