Event Overview

The Home Run for Recovery is a running event in its 12th year in 2026. It takes place on Sunday, September 6, 2026, at Logger's Stadium in Copeland Park, La Crosse, Wisconsin. The event aims to honor people affected by addiction and raise awareness and funds for recovery support.

Distances and Events

The event includes three race options:

  • Home Run for Recovery 10K Road Race
  • Home Run for Recovery 5K Run/Walk
  • Little Leaguer's Race (for children ages 12 and under; participants run around the bases or warning track of the baseball stadium)

Registration and Fees

Registration opens on June 1, 2026, and closes on September 3, 2026. Registration fees are $35 for the 10K and $25 for the 5K. Same-day registration is available at an additional cost. The Little Leaguers Race is free; children can just show up on the day of the event.

Participant Information

All participants in the 10K and 5K events receive a T-shirt with registration. Those who register by August 14, 2026, are guaranteed their requested T-shirt size. Youth participants in the Little Leaguer's Race receive a prize. The races are timed, and awards are given to the top three men and women in four age categories: 19 and under, 20-39, 40-59, and 60 and above.

A unique feature is that all races start at home plate inside Logger's Stadium. Participants can choose to slide into home plate at the finish line. While the 5K and 10K races are underway, volunteers will be available to play whiffle ball with children in the outfield.
