Run For Jimmy 5k / 1 Mile Walk is a running race on September 19, 2026 in Billings, MT.
From the Organizer
September is Suicide Awareness Month & Addiction Recovery Month. Jimmy was an avid prayer runner who ran for his recovery and it also helped him with his own silent struggle with his mental health. Run For Jimmy 5k / 1 Mile Walk is not only in remembrance to our beloved running brother but to raise awareness of suicide rate realities in our communities and how it is strongly tied to addiction struggles.
This event will be a chip timed 5k run and an untimed 1 mile walk. The event will take place in the nearest parking lot East of the Airport Roundabout of Billings, MT. Click our Location link for precise location.
There will be T-shirts available to handout at the day of the event on a first come first serve basis. There will be a race bib pickup day on Friday September 19, 2025 at the small shelter at South Park, Billings, MT from 12pm to 1:45pm. Bibs can also be picked up on the event day morning from 7:30am to 8:45am. Please come early to avoid long line wait on event day.
This year we are taking optional donations. Thank you!
