Thin Mint Sprint 5K and Cookie Crawl Fun Run
While our 2020 Thin Mint Sprint has already passed the finish line, 2021 is coming soon, look out for more details!
Run your cookies off — for more cookies! Join us on Saturday, Feb. 29, for Girl Scouts of Gateway Council's Thin Mint Sprint 5K and Cookie Crawl 1-mile fun run at the St. Johns Town Center in Jacksonville. This flat, fast course means you finish more quickly and get to those cookies at the finish line!
