Bronzeville 5K Run/ Walk

The Bronzeville 5K Run/Walk begins at 4433 South St. Lawrence in Chicago, guiding participants through historic Bronzeville. This 5K is open to all ages, designed for families, neighbors, local runners, and anyone seeking a community fitness event rather than a competition solely for serious athletes. The event is now in its sixth year and generates funds for schools within the Bronzeville community. We Run Sports, the organizer, emphasizes active lifestyles, recreational sports, health, and community involvement. Its nonprofit branch, the Spaulding Foundation, backs initiatives that leverage sports for improved well-being and directs proceeds to other 501(c)(3) organizations.
