RISE UP!
and we won't let them down.

The trails are calling! And as the country - hopefully - starts to see the backside of the COVID pandemic, we are here to answer that call!
Thus the tectonic shift of the very nature of Allerton Races - from an early Spring ritual of greeting the first shoots of green, to a celebration of the lush foliage and vibrant wildlife that is Allerton in the late Summer!
In shifting the event to the right, we're at least looking at better public health circumstances. The park is now open for us to join together in celebration of health and fitness and nature, all while raising funds for the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Illinois!
Registration is up and running! Time to jump in and run/walk with us!!!


Your race fee supports Make-A-Wish Illinois which continues to bring hope, strength, and joy to more than 10,000 children with life-threatening medical conditions. You will also be supporting Robert Allerton Park, named one of the 7 Wonders of Illinois by the Illinois Bureau of Tourism.
NOT ABLE TO JOIN US AT THE PARK? HOW ABOUT A VIRTUAL RACE??!!
​
If you’ve never heard of a “virtual race” before, it goes like this. You run or walk your own version of your chosen race(s) (5K, 10K, and/or Half Marathon), on your own course anywhere (safe)! If you have a Garmin or similar device, OR if you can work with a running app on your phone, you can choose to record your time and distance and send it in. BUT you can also do it without tech if you prefer!

Then we will get you your medal (10K and Half Marathon) and a certificate suitable for framing!

We'll share your participation on social media if you're willing. You’ll be asked to send a photo. You’ll be encouraged to tell a story. Dogs were allowed anyway, but now they’re REALLY allowed. There’ll be points for originality.

Above all, you'll participate in a great story that emerges out of all this mess, one in which Allerton enthusiasts, runners, and Make-A-Wish supporters come together in our 9th consecutive year to do something amazing! 

Not a Runner or Walker?
VOLUNTEER!

We need your help! Runner support, check-in, course marshalling, and ENTERTAINMENT!
