Miles for Manufacturing 5k and 1 Mile Walk
About the Event
The Miles for Manufacturing (M4M) 5K Run/Walk is a beloved tradition at IMTS, uniting the manufacturing community around two shared passions: staying active and giving back. Launched at IMTS 2014, the event has raised more than $250,000 to date-all of which goes directly to STEM programs around the country that prepare the next generation of innovators, makers and problem solvers; that 100% impact is possible because IMTS covers every production expense- from shirts, timing gear to permits and signage. Thanks to this support, every sponsorship dollar and every runner's registration fee is invested in manufacturing education.
Join fellow runners on September 16, 2026 for the Miles for Manufacturing 5k and 1 Mile Walk. It's a fantastic 5K, 1.6K featuring a flat and fast course in Chicago.
