Run of the Mill 5k 2026

Windmill Island Gardens' Run of the Mill is back for 2026, and we can't wait to see you at our annual 5K fun-run! This year's Run of the Mill event will take place on Saturday, April 18, where proceeds will continue to support future programs and the ongoing maintenance that helps keep Windmill Island Gardens so beautiful!

The Run of the Mill 5k course will take you around the island itself and then head out to Window on the Waterfront before looping back to the island towards the finish line. Registration is $30 per participant and includes a Run of the Mill 5k finisher medal, and a race t-shirt if registered before Friday, March 27, 2026. Please note, t-shirts are not guaranteed after March 27. While all ages are welcome to participate, children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult. Due to safety concerns, dogs will not be permitted during the 5k.

Registration for Mini Millers is $15 per participant and includes a race ribbon and race t-shirt. Please note t-shirts are not guaranteed after March 27.
