Run it Forward 5K

The IHSAA Foundation presents the first annual Run it Forward 5K, held on Saturday, October 31, 2026, at the LaVern Gibson Championship Cross Country Course in Terre Haute, Indiana. The event follows the Cross Country State Finals and is presented by the Terre Haute Convention & Visitors Bureau.

The run is organized to support education-based athletics, including coaches, officials, and programs that serve student-athletes beyond the season. The race uses chip timing and provides each participant with a T-shirt and a finisher medal. The course is the LaVern Gibson championship layout, noted as the home of the IHSAA boys and girls state cross country championships.

Awards are planned in multiple categories: overall male and female winners, masters male and female winners for ages 65 and over, age group winners, and recognition for the largest group or team. Sponsors are acknowledged as part of the event structure.

The venue address is listed as 599 S Tabortown St, Terre Haute, IN 47803. The description focuses on event format, purpose, participant items, and award categories without additional logistical details. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
