About this race
Event Overview
Limitless Momentum is proud to announce our 2nd Annual Better Than Yesterday 5K on Sunday, September 20th at Wilder Park in Aurora, IL (350 N. River St). The Better Than Yesterday 5K is about progress, not perfection. This is a run/walk, so all "walks of life" are welcome. This will be a chipped race.
Purpose and Donations

This event is rooted in resilience, overall well-being and the belief that becoming better than yesterday is worth the effort.
