Running Outreach

Kamen East Park
FREE! (registration required)
Northwestern students will coach elementary and middle schoolers in Evanston to run a 5K race at the end of the season. Weekly practices will consist of engaging running games, movements, and longer fun runs. The overarching goals of this program are to introduce kids to running as a mental health outlet, eliminate financial barriers to running and increase diversity and inclusion within the distance running community.
PLEASE NOTE: Northwestern University classes are hosted by the Park District but developed and managed by our partners.
