2027 Dreams for Veterans 5k & 10k
The event takes place on May 15, 2027 at Wheaton Regional Park and is organized by Bishops Events. It offers trail running options with points that count toward the Year‑Long 5k, 10k, Back of the Pack Series and the Spring Series.
Distances:
- 5 km one loop
- 10 km two loops
The route is mostly dirt, trail and forest with rolling hills and exposed roots. The race is chip timed and awards a finisher medal and a technical event shirt. T‑shirts are guaranteed for runners registered before May 5; extras may be available after that date on a first come, first served basis. A virtual race option is available for participants who cannot attend in person.
Water stations are placed along both courses: two stations on the 5 km course and five stations on the 10 km course, with Gatorade available at some stations. Restrooms are available inside the park. Packet pickup is available at the event and race day registration is offered; sizes cannot be guaranteed for late registrants. Race results are posted live and final results with series points are published after the event.
Awards include top three men and women overall and age group awards across multiple categories; overall top three are not eligible for age group prizes. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
