Thankful Thursday! 💙

A huge thank you to the Magarity Family for providing nourishment to our runners at the Tremont stop for the 3rd year in a row!

$870,000 raised. ❤️

In just 13 years, the Mackinaw to Peoria St. Jude Run is closing in on an incredible milestone — $1 MILLION raised!

We're only $130,000 away, and it's all because of the runners, donors, volunteers, sponsors, and supporters who continue to believe in the mission.

Thank you for helping us make a difference for the kids of St. Jude. Let's keep going! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

Have you ever thought about joining a St. Jude Run team?

Now is your chance! We have a limited number of seats available on our team.

🏃 Requirement: Raise $1,000 for the kids of St. Jude.

👟 Must be at least 16 years old (with parent/guardian permission if under 18).

Not a runner? That's okay! We run as slow as our slowest runner, and every mile is about the mission.

Want to help but not run? Keep an eye on our page! We'll be looking for can shakers and volunteers on run day.

Together, we can make a difference for the kids of St. Jude. ❤️

Hot off the press! 📰💛

We are beyond grateful to our local paper—the Banner Times, Manito Review, and Olympia Review—for shining a light on the St. Jude Mackinaw to Peoria Run.

This run is about more than miles; it’s about neighbors, friends, and communities coming together to beat childhood cancer.

Thank you for helping us share the mission! 🙌❤️

Who’s ready to join us for 2026? 🏃‍♀️💛
The Mackinaw Team is a relaxed-paced run that welcomes runners of all experience levels. Our focus is on raising money—not running miles—for the children of St. Jude.

Come be part of something meaningful! 💛

Next year, we will be celebrating 45 incredible years of the St. Jude Runs on Saturday, August 1, 2026! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Whether you're a seasoned runner or joining us for the first time, this is your chance to be part of something powerful. Every step supports the life-saving mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

Registration opens early November 2025. Stay tuned for more details! 🎉
