A part of Chicago's LGBTQIA+ Pride Week activities since 1982, Proud to Run healthily celebrates pride while raising funds to support the LGBTQIA+ community of the greater Chicago area. As of 2019, Proud to Run has donated nearly $700,000 to organizations that work to keep our community more vital, healthier, and safer. The Proud to Run 5K and 10K is organized by an all-volunteer, community-based board of directors and we hope you join the fun.
