Cloquet River Run 2026

The Cloquet River Run begins and ends at Churchill Elementary. A 1-mile run/walk starts at 9:00 a.m., followed by a 5K run/walk at 9:30 a.m. This Cloquet, Minnesota event, held annually since 2007, is designed for runners and walkers of all ages, not exclusively for competitive racers. Both distances feature USATF-certified courses, ensuring accurate measurement. Churchill P.I.E. manages the races, with proceeds benefiting Churchill Elementary's wellness and education initiatives, including playground equipment, healthy snacks, health programs, and technology. Over 300 participants attend, creating a community morning atmosphere alongside the race.
