Valentine's Day 5k

Valentine's Day 5k, held in Waterloo, Nebraska at Two Rivers State Park, is the third race in the Winter Fitness Series presented by Run Nebraska and 402 XC & Track. The event features a flat, closed-loop course on scenic park grounds and is USATF-certified with official times, creating a fun atmosphere that celebrates love and friendship. It also serves as the USATF Nebraska Youth 5k Road Championship.

Proceeds support the USATF Nebraska Association Long Distance Running program. A special incentive awaits participants who complete all three Winter Fitness races: a unique medal. In 2025, the in-person race was changed to a virtual format due to severe weather; participants can use the Its Your Race app or email their time.
