Who We Are: Healthy Kids Running Series is a five (5) week running program in the spring and fall for kids Pre-K through 8th grade. Each HKRS Series takes place once a week and offers age-appropriate running events including the 50 & 75 yard dashes, the 1/4 mile, the 1/2 mile and the 1 mile run.

The HOH 5k is the sole fundraiser for the HOH scholarship program. This race is organized by the Northbrook District 28 PTO Council with volunteers from Greenbriar, Meadowbrook, Northbrook Junior High and Westmoor. All proceeds benefit the Homer O. Harvey Scholarship Fund.

5K runners and walkers will start at 8:00 a.m with a group start. We welcome strollers, but NO dogs, bikes or rollerblades please. The lot behind the junior high will be closed from 7:45 - 8:15 a.m. for the race. The race is chip timed for instant results of the race. Runners can see their results after they finish.

At 9:00 a.m. there will be a kids fun run. Kids age 6 & under are invited to participate. Registration for the kids run will close at 7:45 a.m.

이번 5K 러닝 페스티벌은 청년 세대를 복음 안에서 다시 세우고 공동체를 회복하기 위한 믿음의 발걸음이자, 지역사회를 섬기기 위한 나눔의 실천입니다. 본 행사의 수익금은 지역사회 단체인 Kan-Win에 기부되어 도움이 필요한 이웃을 지원하는 데 사용될 예정입니다. 달리기를 통해 믿음과 사랑을 나누며, 교회와 지역사회가 함께 세워지는 의미 있는 시간이 되기를 소망합니다.

This 5K Running Festival is a step of faith to restore young adults in Christ and rebuild meaningful community, while also serving our local neighbors through generosity. Proceeds from this event will be donated to Kan-Win to support their ongoing work in the community. Through running, fellowship, and giving, we hope this event will strengthen both the church and the broader community we are called to serve.

We look forward to seeing you at the starting line on May 16, 2026!

The Run for D103 5K Run/Walk is a family-friendly, annual fundraising event that enables the Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) to provide the Lincolnshire-Prairie View School District 103 with programs and equipment for the benefit of our children. This race is representative of our district's commitment to foster both healthy minds and healthy bodies in our children and to instill a lifelong passion for education and exercise.

In addition to the 5k, we will host the Sibling Shuffle, a free fun run for children ages 4 and under. Toddlers will have a chance to toe the line and be just like their older sibling(s) in this 103-yard dash to the finish line. Each participant will receive a participation medal to celebrate his/her achievement.

Since the Run for D103 is a family event, we kindly ask you to please leave all furry friends at home. Registered service dogs are always welcome.

Please note we CANNOT GUARANTEE T-SHIRTS for registrants after April 15, 2026. After that date shirts will be distributed on a first come, first served basis based on inventory and registration date/time.
