Paid entry for iconic 10K, popular newer 5K makes a great gift
Registration is now open for the 49th edition of the iconic Bellin Run. This year’s run/walk event will take place Saturday, June 14, offering the signature 10K (6.2-mile) distance as well as the third year of the popular 5K (3.1-mile) event.
Early registration for the Bellin Run gives people a goal to stay active throughout the year, even during the colder months. And for those searching for a last-minute gift, a registration can be perfect for the holidays.
“A Bellin Run registration is the perfect way to encourage activity year-round by getting you up and moving, even in the colder months,” said Executive Race Director Randy Van Straten. “It can also be the perfect gift for the running enthusiast in your life or to someone who is looking for a new challenge.”
The Bellin Run welcomes individuals at all levels of running and walking with the 10K, 5K and Children’s Run. The 10K and 5K events also offer a virtual option for those who can’t make it in-person.
“These events are more than just a run/walk with a start and finish line,” said Assistant Race Director Linda Maxwell. “It’s about bringing our communities together to promote a healthier and more active lifestyle. It doesn’t matter if you’ve been running for years or are joining us for the first time, the Bellin Run is for everyone.”
Each year, the Bellin Run unveils a new custom logo, something participants and volunteers eagerly await. All registrants will receive an official Bellin Run technical T-shirt featuring this year’s custom logo.
The Bellin Run hosts free weekly run/walk training events, which will begin March 26. Sessions begin at 6 p.m. Wednesdays at Bellin Health Titletown Sports Medicine & Orthopedics and are open to all levels and abilities. For school or corporate training programs, please contact our team for turnkey programming and support. The Bellin Run also is looking for captains and coaches for these programs; please email our team if you are interested in helping improve the health of our community by getting more “feet on the street”!
