Running with Ed - 2026

Thanks to our great sponsors it's another year of impressive fundraising thank you prizes. Read the full list below to get an idea of what you can win, and how to win it. You're supporting our educators, our students, and our schools!

When you fundraise, everyone wins, including you! 

To qualify for a prize you must be registered as a participant. If you just want to raise money you can, but missing the run is your FOMO to live with. 

Fundraising Category Winners

Top Individual Overall

The individual who raises the most money takes home the Chesley Trophy on the day of the event, AND gets to choose first for the 'Picking of the Prizes.' You'll be included in the Park Record and get plenty of street cred from the celebration. 

Top Team Overall

If you set a team fundraiser, we will automatically pool the individual results for a grand total (all members must be part of your team prior to May 16th).

On race day the top team will get a big shout out and announcement. The top team also gets a special prize.

Top Student 

Limo and Woodward with friends!  — The top student fundraiser (by dollars) gets a limo ride + 10 Woodward passes for a day! Students must be registered as a runner or fundraiser on runningwithed.com to win. 

Top 20 Fundraisers 

The top 20 individual fundraisers overall by dollar amount, including students and adults, are invited to the picking of the prizes table on race day where some single prizes can exceed $2,000 in value! This is a pretty big deal, it's not your average prize table. Remember, those who raise the most pick first and we go 20 deep.

Tips and Tricks

• All funds must be donated directly to your fundraising page. If someone gives you cash or Venmo, you must then donate to your own page, but you only count as one unique donor.
• Find your personal fundraising link here after you have registered.
