Larry St. Onge Memorial Run to Benefit Others
The Larry St. Onge Memorial Run to Benefit Others is a fall charity running event held at Danada Forest Preserve in Wheaton, Illinois. The event includes multiple participation options and a remote runner option or the ability to donate in memory of Larry.
Distances and options:
- 10K on crushed limestone trails
- 5K on crushed limestone trails
- Charity Walk at a more relaxed pace
- Remote runner option or direct donation
The course uses crushed limestone trails within the Danada-Herrick Regional Trail and passes through prairie, woodland, and marsh habitats. The main venue address is 3S580 Naperville Road, Wheaton, IL 60189.
The event supports two charities: the American Heart Association and the Naperville Area Humane Society. Ten percent of registration fees and 100 percent of charity donations go to the selected charity. Over the last four years the event has raised over $25,000 for selected charities.
Event features include a race shirt, race awards and raffle prizes, complimentary beverages, and an after party. Awards are based on a shotgun start: overall awards are presented to the top three finishers, and age recognition pins are given to the top male and female in each age group. Official finish order determines placement and official time is gun time per applicable USATF rules. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
