Students Run Chicago challenges high school students to experience the benefits of goal-setting, character development, adult mentoring and improved health by providing them with access to a comprehensive mentor-based running program. We pair volunteer running leaders with teams of students to inspire them to push themselves further than they ever imagined. Their goal: the completion of a 5K, 10K, half and/or full marathon. The courage and effort required, the unfailing support of invested mentors, and the excitement of its ultimate achievement results in a student who realized anything is possible.
As a Charity Runner for Students Run Chicago, your fundraising goes directly to the local youth by providing them gear, nutrition, transportation and additional support to be successful in their running goals for 2025 and beyond!
