Larry St. Onge Memorial Run to Benefit Others
The Larry St. Onge Memorial Run to Benefit Others is a charity running event held at Danada Forest Preserve in Wheaton, Illinois. Over the last four years the event has raised over $25,000 for selected charities. The 2025 edition supports the American Heart Association and the Naperville Area Humane Society. Ten percent of registration fees and 100% of charity donations are directed to the selected charities.
The event offers multiple participation options:
- 10K
- 5K
- Charity Walk
- Remote runner
The course uses crushed limestone trails within the Danada-Herrick Regional Trail and passes through prairie, woodland, and marsh habitats. Event features listed 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; overall winners are not eligible for age group awards. Age recognition pins are awarded to the top male and female finishers in each age group. Official finish order is determined by the order in which athletes cross the finish line, and official time is gun time in accordance with USATF Rule 245.3.
The event also accepts remote participants and donations in memory of Larry to support the listed charities. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
