Run For A Reason Memorial 5K Run/Walk
Run For A Reason is a memorial 5K run/walk held in Theresa, Wisconsin on August 15, 2026. The course starts and ends at Fireman's Park, and the distance is 5K (3.1 Miles). The event is dedicated to raising funds for cancer organizations, research institutions, and local hospitals.
The memorial honors a community member who died from leukemia two years earlier. That person was a military veteran who served in Afghanistan and later worked as Dodge County public health officer. During their career they organized races and supported local health initiatives; the event continues that legacy by combining fundraising with community activity.
Post-race activities include raffles, food, and music. Registration carries a fee of $30. The event description notes that registration and on-site check-in are part of the event logistics and that the gathering takes place in and around Fireman's Park in Theresa. The format is a single 5K run/walk with community-focused elements and fundraising as the stated purpose. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
