Run to Read

With suburban Cook County now in a level of high community transmission of COVID-19 (Cook County Department of Public Health), School District 54 has made the decision to move the 2021 Run to Read to a virtual format only. Our goal for this race has always been to promote health and fitness. In 2021, that includes a focus on keeping our students and staff, and their families, healthy so that we can continue to keep our students attending school in person.

We hope that you will continue to join us by walking or running 1-mile, 5K, 10K, kids’ sprint, or any distance you prefer during race weekend—Sept. 24-26. Wear the T-shirt during your virtual race, take a photo and tag us on social media at #54Run2Read. If you would like to submit your time to compete against your fellow runners, fill out the 2021 Run to Read Virtual Form.

T-shirts and medals will be delivered to District 54 schools. If you would like, you can print and color your own 2021 Run to Read Race Bib.
