Sole Mates
Year-Round, First Friday of the Month
Missoula Sole Mates
Looking to make new connections?
Whether you’re searching for a love match, a new best friend, or just someone to share miles with, Sole Mates is designed to bring people together in a fun and low-pressure way.
Join us on the first Friday of every month at Caras Park for a relaxed 3.5-mile run followed by snacks and time to mingle. Afterward, you’re welcome to keep the night going and head off to other First Friday shenanigans with your new connections.
Our Sole Mate runs are open to all runners and walkers. Run Wild Missoula membership is not required, but non members are required to sign a waiver prior to the start. Join Run Wild Missoula.

Our next run:
Friday, August 7
Caras Park, 6:00 PM
The run is free for members and non-members, though non members are required to sign a waiver prior to the start. To avoid that, please consider joining. It’s a great value at only $27/year for an individual membership or just $37/year for families. Join Run Wild Missoula.
As outlined in our “Rules of the Run,” for safety reasons, we ask that dogs are not present during Missoula Sole Mates.
Meet the Sole Mates Program Leader, Kaleigh!
Kaleigh Mahaney is the Run Wild Missoula Sole Mates run leader. After moving to Missoula in 2025 and training for her first half marathon with Run Wild Missoula, she discovered not only a love for running but also the power of community. She’s passionate about creating welcoming spaces where people can connect, make new friends, or maybe even meet someone special – all through the simple act of sharing a few miles together.
When she’s not running, she’s usually at Cranky Sam’s, exploring everything Missoula has to offer, or listing to true crime podcasts.
