Running for a Sweet Cause 5k

Join us for the Run for a Sweet Cause 5K, a fun, family-friendly event benefiting Ronald McDonald House Charities. Whether you’re an experienced runner, a weekend walker, or just looking for a great way to spend a morning with friends and family, everyone is welcome to participate. This event is part of my journey to the Chicago Marathon this October, where I am running as a charity runner for Ronald McDonald House Charities. As part of my commitment, I am raising funds to help support families who must travel for their child’s medical care. The Ronald McDonald House provides these families with a place to stay, a warm meal, and a supportive community during some of life’s most challenging moments. What better way to raise support than by bringing our own community together? Inspired by the sweetness of summer, the Run for a Sweet Cause 5K combines fitness, fun, and philanthropy to make a meaningful impact for families in need. Come dressed in your favorite watermelon colors, enjoy a great morning with fellow participants, and help turn every mile into hope for families facing medical challenges. Every registration, sponsorship, and donation helps support Ronald McDonald House Charities and brings me one step closer to reaching my Chicago Marathon fundraising goal. Run. Walk. Give Back. Because every mile makes a difference and every family deserves a place to call home while their child receives care. 🍉💚💗 Date: August 23, 2026 (Sunday) Time: 7:30 a.m. Location: Edinburg Municipal Park Finisher MedalAge group awardsCustom Shirt (if registered before shirt deadline 8/9/2026)Chip Timed by HogRacing Timing
