SMG 5K Race

The SMG 5K Race & 1 Mile Run is an annual event held in Downers Grove, Illinois, centered around the St. Mary of Gostyn Parish campus. It features a competitive 5K race, a 1 Mile run for participants aged 14 and under, and a non-competitive 5K walk without timing.

All races start and finish on the streets surrounding the parish. Participants receive race shirts if registered by mid-August, and medals are awarded in various age groups for the 5K and 1 Mile races. The event welcomes all ages and offers packet pickup the day before and the morning of the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
