Wild Blossom Wine Run 5k - Chicago
The Wild Blossom Wine Run is a chip-timed 5k run/walk held at Wild Blossom Meadery & Winery in Chicago (ZIP 60620) on April 10, 2027. The course starts and finishes at the winery and follows a route through Dan Ryan Woods; the course is described as flat with no hills.
Registration includes a super soft ring-spun cotton T-shirt, a shatterproof collapsible wine glass, a finisher medal, and a race bib; results are posted online. Finishers 21 and over receive a pour of wine. Minors may register at a reduced rate but do not receive the wine glass or wine pour.
The event offers multiple start waves chosen during registration; age group awards are given to the top three male and female finishers in each ten-year category (1-9, 10-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70-79, 80+). Competitive runners must start with the first wave to be eligible for age-group awards. Professional timing is provided by J3Timing. Free race photos are available for download.
A virtual participation option is available; packet shipment for virtual entrants may incur shipping and handling charges. Packet pickup is handled at the winery and race day pickup is available. The event lists the Nikolas Ritschel Foundation as its charity partner. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
