The St. Luke’s Women’s Fitness Celebration (the Celebration) is a three day event encompassing a two day Women’s Show and a 5K Run, Walk and Stroll for women of all ages and all abilities. Founded in September 1993, the Celebration 5K has grown each year as more and more participants share the event with their families and friends.
The Celebration has never been about speed or endurance, but about celebrating health and wellness in any form, for anyone. The Celebration is for women of all ages and all abilities to come together in a supportive environment. The founders of the Celebration wanted to create an event where elite athletes and grandmothers felt comfortable on the same course on the same day. This unique aspect has inspired many to line up on Celebration Saturday and complete the 3.1 mile course, whether they finish in under 30 minutes or over an hour.
In addition to the 5K, the Celebration includes a two-day Women's Show at the Boise Centre on the Grove. This event draws close to 20,000 attendees each year, and is host to over 160 vendors. The Women's Show offers Celebration participants and the community the opportunity to come together and learn about products and services available for consumers in the Treasure Valley. Participants can shop, sample and preview these items and services important to women buyers. In addition the Women's Show offers the largest opportunity for product sampling in Idaho.
