20th Annual Run for Riley 5 Mile & 5K 2026

Run for Riley is a Fort Wayne race organized by the Fort Wayne Running Club to support Riley Children's Hospital. Participants can choose a chip-timed 5-mile race or a 5K, suitable for those aiming for a personal best and those preferring a shorter community run. Both races begin at Maple Creek Middle School, proceed along the paved Fort Wayne Greenway trails, and then diverge onto separate courses for the 5-mile and 5K. All participants conclude on the school track. The event continues in the school cafeteria, featuring a silent auction, 5-mile awards, treats, and snacks.
