Begin your winter running season with meaning at the Vets Day 5K & 10K presented by Cargill & hosted by Silver Circle on Saturday, November 7, 2026, at the War Memorial. This special event honors our veterans and active-duty service members and is part of the Wisconsin Chilly Willy Winter Run Series. Join hundreds of runners as you make your way through the beautiful Veterans Park in the only race that starts and finishes on Mason Street, right in front of the War Memorial. After the race, stick around for the awards ceremony and treat yourself to our hot chocolate bar.
