Giving Back

A portion of every race registration directly supports the University Preparatory College Fund, helping students access college, career, and workforce opportunities. Additional donations made during registration also go directly to the University Preparatory College Fund, expanding educational opportunities and supporting students on their journey to higher education.

When you run with The Run League, you’re investing in both your own finish line and the future of the next generation.

The Run League is more than a race organizer—we’re building a running community that celebrates consistency, achievement, and the joy of crossing finish lines together.

Swag Alert! Register by December 13, 2026 to guarantee your official 5K/10K race shirt. After December 13th registration remains open, but registrations received after December 13th will not include a shirt. 

Virtual Participants: Complete your 5K or 10K wherever you are, anytime during the week of race day! After your run, submit your finish time/results using the link provided. Virtual participants will receive the same race medal and shirt (if registered before the shirt deadline) as in-person participants, which will be mailed after the event. Results are submitted on the honor system—no proof required!

Because resolutions are great, but crossing that finish line? Even better.

The calendar just reset. Your medal count starts here.
