I Run for Ronald McDonald House® 5K
The 4th Annual I Run for Ronald McDonald House® 5K takes place on May 16, 2026, at The Quad on the University of Washington campus in Seattle, WA. The event supports Ronald McDonald House® of Western Washington and Alaska and the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation; all proceeds benefit those organizations. Participants pledge to run, walk, or bike a distance of 3.1 miles in support of the cause.

Past editions include a virtual 5K held in 2021 with over 200 participants; fundraising totals cited include over $18,000 in 2021 and over $25,000 in 2025.
