Run Madtown - Madison, Wisconsin
Run Madtown is a multi-race event in Madison, Wisconsin, taking place over a late-May weekend in 2027. The event program includes multiple road races, on-course music and festival elements, a finish-line food area with sample-sized products, a Race Weekend Magazine, and standard race services such as packet pick up, post-race information, awards, and course details.
Race distances and short-format events include:
- Half Marathon
- 10K
- Twilight 5K
- Rudy’s Rainbow Mile (one mile)
Rudy’s Rainbow Mile honors a beloved community member and supports LGBTQ+ youth. This one-mile race begins and ends on State Street, the same start and finish used for other Run Madtown events. The event page also describes a community-focused route and a celebratory finish-line area.
Separate from the May weekend, LET'S GLOW is a nighttime fun run held in Warner Park in August and supports the Outreach LGBTQ+ Community Center and the Magic Pride Festival. Run Madtown also offers THRIVE 365, a program of free monthly wellness challenges with step and other short-term activities to encourage ongoing participation in wellness efforts.
