Name: Quality of Life Run 2026
Start: 2026-08-08T08:00:00-06:00
Location: Masterson Cir, Billings, MT 59106, United States

This year’s Quality of Life Run will take place on Saturday, August 8, returning to our original course from the Top of the Rims. The 5-mile race starting line will be located at Masterson Circle. From there, the course will proceed east on Highway 3 to 27th Street, then continue down to MSU-B, where the 2-Mile Race will begin. The finish line for all races will be at the cul-de-sac at N. 32nd Street and 6th Avenue North.
With the change in course and date, we hope to attract even more runners. The downhill route is ideal for athletes chasing personal best times and serves as an excellent tune-up race for the Montana Marathon in September.
The 2026 Quality of Life Run will be our 22nd annual Run and will benefit Off The Streets, a local Billings organization dedicated to helping some of our most at-risk neighbors—those experiencing chronic homelessness. Through their work, Off The Streets offers hope, the love of Christ, and practical support including stable housing, warm meals, and employment opportunities. Quality of Life is grateful to partner with Off The Streets for this meaningful event.
The Quality of Life Community Involvement Program was created by the Billings Association of REALTORS in 2004. The goal is to help raise awareness of and money for non-profits in the community that are working to improve the quality of life for our residents.
Following our Run in 2025, we are so proud to announce that to date, more than $1,000,000 has been raised for non-profits through these events over the past 21 years! We are so proud of this accomplishment!
