🌾 Race Overview

Come out and join us for our 28th Annual Harvest 5k-10k run/walk & Kids Miler. As the oldest race in the Plainfield, this event has averaged around 800 to 900 people each year and has been put on by the Plainfield Shorewood Area Chamber of Commerce. Prior to the race, be sure to visit our vendors and sponsors who will be throughout the park.

Proceeds from the race each year are donated back out in the Plainfield and surrounding communities to non-profits and other organizations. In the history of the race, the chamber has been able to donate over $400,000.00 back to the community. Each year a Give Back Luncheon takes place in November where this happens. Thank you for being a part of something great!

This is a great family event, whether you are supporting a runner, being a sponsor, or running/walking we hope to see you there!
