13th Annual Harvest Hustle 5K 2026

The Harvest Hustle 5K begins at 8 a.m. from the parking lot of Notre Dame College Prep High School in Niles, Illinois. This local 5K offers both a run/walk and a youth run/walk, accommodating families, casual walkers, younger participants, and regular runners within the same race-day setup. The event is in its thirteenth year and supports the Niles Family Services Food Pantry. Entry fees and donations fund the pantry, and the race has raised over $35,000 and collected thousands of pounds of food for local families throughout its history. Last year saw the race's largest turnout, with registered runners collecting their race packages on race day.
