5Kevents.org – Race Timing and Management

5Kevents.org  was formed in 2013, after several years as a Plan Ahead Events Franchise. Our very 1st event was held in 2010 for the Racine Unified School District where we orchestrated a spirit run for local schools under the name RacineKids.org. Today we orchestrate events nationwide and our staff has over 40 years combined experience in the industry.

We provide training, guidance, and counsel to organizations looking to use a 5K Run / Walk as a fundraiser and to entrepreneurs who want to start their own race timing business. We coach and assist Race Directors, Timing Companies, Event Planners and Non-profits refine their existing events so they are more profitable. 

One of the greatest assets is our themed and trademarked events that can be reproduced for local organizations to help raise awareness and income for the organizations they support.

Our Mission:

To share our love of competitive and cooperative running by bringing people together from all walks of life. We work to provide a family oriented, happy, healthy, enthusiastic atmosphere to run and socialize while supporting our community and charitable organizations. We use our passion for running to build friendships, provide encouragement, and improve ourselves with no regard to age, cultural differences, gender, pace or experience. Our goal is to learn and grow through our shared experience, and to leave no runner behind.
