2ND ANNUAL BETTER THAN YESTERDAY 5K

The Better Than Yesterday 5K is back on Sunday, September 20th at Wilder Park in Aurora, IL! This is a community focused event open to both runners and walkers. A solid reason to get out and move. Hosted by Limitless Momentum, the goal is to bring people together, show up for yourself and be better than you were yesterday.

After last year's 5K, we donated over $4,200 to Hope For The Day.

All proceeds will be donated to A Call To Shoulders, a local nonprofit helping veterans build new skills and purpose through woodworking and hands on craftsmanship after their time in the military.

We’ll also have local vendors and sponsors set up throughout the event, creating a solid mix of small businesses, community organizations, and brands to check out before and after the race.
