Frank Lloyd Wright Races 2026

The Frank Lloyd Wright Races occur annually in the fall in Oak Park, Illinois, west of Chicago. The event includes a 10K, a 5K, and a youth mile for children 7 and up, accommodating runners, walkers, families, and local club members in a single morning. The Parks Foundation of Oak Park organizes the race, which is one of the longest-running road races in Illinois. The 10K route is most connected to the namesake, passing five Frank Lloyd Wright-designed homes and the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio. The course is primarily on flat suburban streets, winding through Oak Park’s tree-lined neighborhoods. The start and finish are located near Ontario Street and Elmwood Avenue. Participants receive a long-sleeved race shirt, a fitting tradition for a fall event in the Chicago area.
