Forks 5K

Get ready to lace up your sneakers for the Forks 5K, a thrilling race that not only tests your limits but also supports Albion's charming community! This scenic run takes place where two branches of the Kalamazoo River converge, creating a stunning backdrop at Victory Park. The run aligns with the vibrant Festival of the Forks, so after you've raced, you can indulge in fantastic food and toe-tapping music.

But it's more than just a race; your registration helps Albion flourish! Every entry acts as a donation to local nonprofits, with last year's events donating over $3,000 to various organizations. Embrace inclusivity with stroller and dog-friendly 5K options, or get your kids excited with the free Fun Run! Plus, students snag a sweet $10 discount automatically.

Be punctual for check-in between 5:00-6:00 PM, because at 6:30 PM sharp, it's go time! Every participant earns a medal, with special awards for the top runners. Can't be there in person? Join virtually, run at your pace, and still earn that bling. The Forks 5K isn't just an event, it's a community celebration on the run!
