MiCHN 5K & 1-mile run/walk 2026

The MiCHN 5K & 1-mile run/walk takes place entirely within the Michigan State Capitol Complex in Lansing, utilizing concrete sidewalks and paved paths. It features a 5K run/walk beginning in the morning, followed an hour later by a 1-mile run/walk, accommodating families and walkers as integral participants. The 5K follows a three-loop course around the Capitol complex, allowing spectators to easily track runners and participants to anticipate the route. The event supports Homeschool Day At The Dome, uses RunSignup for registration, offers age-based pricing for children, teens, and adults, and provides shirts for early registrants. Awards are presented to the top three male and female finishers in age groups ranging from young children to those over 40.
