Miles for Migraine - Illinois holds its 11th annual event at Diversey Park in Chicago on June 6, 2026. The event combines fundraising and community activities with three participation options: a timed 5K run, an untimed 2 mile walk, and a Relax option for attendees who prefer the festival area and seating.

The 5K run is chip timed. The walk and the Relax option are free and donations are encouraged. All walk and run finishers receive a finisher medal. A virtual participant option is available and includes a participant shirt, event bib, and finisher medal; a mailed swag bag is available for an additional charge.
Event features include pre event speakers, a festival area with sponsors, a Relax tent with seating and activities, and a photo booth. Packet pick up is offered before the event with locations on the Friday before the event at Heartbreak Hill Running Company and on the event day at the event site. Funds raised will support Miles for Migraine free programs and services, the Seymour Diamond Fellowship in Headache Medicine, and the RUSH Headache Center to support local migraine research and fellowship training.
