Run for a Resident 2026

Run for a Resident is a small community race in Sutton, Nebraska, held at Sutton Community Home on North Saunders Avenue. It takes place on a Saturday morning in late June, starting at 8:00 a.m., and provides two straightforward choices: a timed 5K and a 1-mile event for those seeking a shorter run. Both runners and walkers are welcome, and strollers may participate from the rear of the starting line. The start and finish are located at the Sutton Community Home circle drive, maintaining the event's connection to the place it benefits. The 5K features professional timing, with results posted and emailed, a single water station, overall male and female awards, and age-group awards ranging from 10-and-under to 60-plus. Entry includes a shirt and post-race refreshments, though registration closes prior to race day. Proceeds benefit the Sutton Community Home Building Project, linking the race to the home’s mission of providing care, independence, and dignity for its residents.
