Hey Runners, do you want to have even more fun at the 2026 Bloomingdale Trail 5k?
We’re giving participants and lovers of our Annual Bloomingdale Trail Run an opportunity to get involved in multiple ways—as volunteers, as sponsors, and as members of a host committee.
Join us during the upcoming Friends of Bloomingdale Trail virtual meeting on March 18 at 6:30pm. We’ll be dedicating the first 15 minutes to discussing the 2026 Trail Run! (To join, email us at info@bloomingdaletrail.org and we’ll provide you the meeting link.)
By the way, earlybird registration is already open for run, which is scheduled for Saturday, September 26. It’s a fun, family-friendly event with a timed 5k and 1/4-mile and 1/2-mile dashes for young runners.
The event is produced by Friends of the Bloomingdale Trail (FBT), the McCormick YMCA, and the Chicago Park District. It’s a true community-organized run and the proceeds support the Bloomingdale Trail’s year-round programs.
