From the Organizer
Welcome to Girls Who Run DFW's Race Without the Pace, a female-only 5K designed to give you all the fun of race day without the pressure of the clock.
Whether you want to run the entire 3.1 miles, walk with friends, push a stroller, bring your dog, or enjoy a coffee chat while getting your miles in, this event is for you. There are no official race times, no podiums, and no pressure—just a supportive race atmosphere where you can move at your own pace.
Want to challenge yourself? Feel free to time yourself and chase a new PR. Want a more relaxed morning? Grab your friends and enjoy the miles together.

Choose Your Missed Medal
This event is also your chance to earn a medal from a Girls Who Run DFW race you may have missed.
Participants may register for one event/medal only. During registration, you'll select the medal you'd like to earn. We will maintain a checklist for each event and verify your registration at check-in to ensure you receive the specific medal you signed up for and completed the 5K to earn.
Limited Availability: Once a medal category reaches capacity, it is sold out. Because medal inventory is limited, spots will not last long.
If you missed out on one of our previous races, this is your opportunity to complete the miles, earn the medal, and be part of the Girls Who Run DFW community, without the pace. 💖✨
