Always in Our Hearts 5K
The Always in Our Hearts 5K is an annual run and walk held in Chicago on September 5, 2026. The event honors the lives of two brothers who died from congenital heart defects and brings together families, friends, and community members to raise awareness and funds for children and families affected by congenital heart disease.
Proceeds from the event are used to provide donations to organizations such as Advocate Children's Heart Institute and Ronald McDonald House Charities. The Always in Our Hearts Foundation also directs funds to local families and community organizations facing hardship, and the event serves as a community fundraiser and remembrance activity.
Event formats include an in-person 5K and a virtual 5K option. Registration for the in-person and virtual events carries a fee of $10.00. The event location is 3900 S Lakeshore Dr, Chicago, IL 60653. Registration periods are listed separately for the in-person and virtual options, with registration closing on the day of the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
