Cupcake 5K

The Cupcake 5K is a timed running event held in Champaign, Illinois. Organized by the Champaign-Urbana Special Recreation (CUSR) Association, this event focuses on inclusion and community support for individuals with disabilities. The course is designed to be accessible to various participants and concludes with a cupcake for finishers.

The event features two distinct distances:

  • 3.1 Miles (5K)
  • 100 Meter Dash

Proceeds from the registration fees support the CUSR Scholarship Fund. These funds are used to provide scholarships that assist individuals with disabilities in accessing recreation programs by removing financial barriers. The race serves to raise awareness for the Champaign-Urbana Special Recreation Association and its initiatives within the local community.

Participants gather at 3310 Fields S Dr to take part in this high-spirited celebration of ability. The 5K race requires a registration fee and takes place alongside a shorter dash, catering to different preferences and mobility levels.
