CARA Go Run Chicago Jackson Park 2026

Jackson Fieldhouse anchors CARA Go Run Chicago Jackson Park, a straightforward park run focused on activating neighborhood parks. It feels more like a local meet-up than a formal race: runners, walkers, volunteers, and neighbors gather in Jackson Park. The goal is clear and positive: build communities and encourage active lifestyles through running and volunteerism. Expect a relaxed field with participants of all ages, a morning where the people around you are as important as your time. The route is simple, originating from the fieldhouse. Registration opens the Friday before each Go Run. The long-term aim is to make these runs a core part of neighborhood culture through organic community engagement.
