About

WFT 5k - Where Futures Thrive takes place on September 12, 2027, in Burlington, Wisconsin, with a single 5K (3.1 miles) starting at 10 a.m. and featuring about 371 feet (113 m) of elevation gain. Funds raised support sports, arts and educational activities for local youth.

Registrants receive a T-shirt while supplies last, team entries are possible, and awards go to the top three teams, the top male and female runners and the various age groups. That much climbing over 3.1 miles is enough to shape the race: the course is not flat, surges matter, and going out too hard on the early climbs tends to be paid for later. Walkers, casual runners and fans of fun outfits are just as welcome as those chasing a fast time.
