Fight Hunger 5K I 10K I 1-Mile

The Fight Hunger event returns for its 13th year at Cantigny Park in Wheaton, Illinois. This community gathering brings together approximately 1,700 participants of various ages to support the Northern Illinois Food Bank. The event features a morning program that includes food and live entertainment.

Participants can choose from several distances:

  • 10K Run
  • 5K Run/Walk
  • 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk

The 10K and 5K options are open to runners and walkers. For safety on the course, those walking the 5K are requested to position themselves behind the runners at the start line and remain to the side of the path.

The 1 Mile Fun Run is specifically designed for children under the age of 12. Adults registered for the longer distances may accompany younger participants during this mile as a warm-up. Adults who prefer a shorter distance than the 5K or 10K are also permitted to participate in the mile event.

The venue is located at 1 S, 151 Winfield Rd in Wheaton. Registration fees vary based on the chosen distance, with specific rates for the mile and the longer races. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
