The Yellowstone Rim Runners’ mission is to promote health and fitness through running and walking for all ages and paces. We strive to build the Billings running community by offering a wide variety of fun activities to get you moving and meet other runners. Join us for group runs, races, and social events!
We have weekly group runs every Wednesday night and Saturday morning. Hang out and grab a drink (NA options available) with us after the brewery runs. We also host a number of fun social runs throughout the year including a New Year potluck, Demon Dash, and Christmas Lights runs.
We organize several races throughout the year. Our flagship races are Run! Turkey Run! and The Shamrock Run. We also host low-key, free races for members only including our summer race series, The Free 3 (Rims to River, Rim Runner Mile, and Trail Trek), and our winter race series, Catch Me if You Can!
Our nonprofit running club, powered by volunteers, also supports our community. We organize trail cleanups several times a year for our adopted trail (from 24th St W to 29th St W). Our Run! Turkey Run! race proceeds are donated to local food charities every year. We also raise money from the Shamrock Run to support the local running community by donating to trail and youth running organizations.
