About the Event

Experience the heart of Chicago’s North Shore on June 6th, 2027, at the North Shore Classic Half Marathon, 5K Run, and Kids Dash. This annual race offers runners an opportunity to explore Highland Park's charming streets while enjoying breathtaking views of Lake Michigan.
The half marathon route winds through historic neighborhoods and alongside scenic parks, providing a mix of flat terrain that’s perfect for both competitive racers aiming for personal bests and casual participants looking to enjoy the scenery at their own pace. The 5K run is equally inviting, with its shorter distance making it accessible to runners of all levels while still offering a taste of Highland Park's picturesque setting.
Once you cross the finish line, join fellow athletes in celebrating your achievement at an expansive post-race picnic area. Savor live music performances that set the mood for relaxation and camaraderie. Indulge in a variety of grilled delights, refreshing beverages, and lively activities designed to extend the day’s festivities well beyond crossing the finish.
The North Shore Classic is more than just a race; it's an event where community spirit shines through every step along the route and at the vibrant post-race celebration. Don't miss out on this unforgettable experience that combines athletic challenge with heartfelt camaraderie.
Join us for what promises to be another memorable year of running, fun, and friendship in Highland Park!
