Description
Chase the Light 5K
Mon, July 20 – Sun, July 26, 2026 · Virtual · Run or Walk Your Way
Your race. Your route. Your reason.
Chase the Light is a week-long virtual 5K that meets you exactly where you are. No starting line, no crowded course, no pressure. Run before work. Walk after dinner. Push the stroller through the park. You choose when, where, and how you move.
Every step you take fuels something bigger: the caregivers, families, and communities that IncuBrighter exists to support.
What's included with registration:
- Commemorative Chase the Light coin — yours just for crossing the finish line
- A full week to complete your 5K — any time between July 20–26
- Complete freedom of route — treadmill, trail, neighborhood sidewalk, all of it counts
- Peer-to-peer fundraising access — hit your fundraising goal and unlock exclusive IncuBrighter swag
- Community — you'll be moving alongside participants from across Northeast Ohio and beyond, united by a shared belief that communities are strongest when the people in them are supported to lead, grow, and thrive
Why it matters:
IncuBrighter is the Nonprofit for Nonprofits. Every day, people across Northeast Ohio see a need in their community and decide to do something about it — but good intentions aren't enough. Without the right guidance, most early nonprofits don't survive. IncuBrighter exists to change that.
When you register for Chase the Light, you're helping us provide the education, tools, and support that turn community-driven ideas into organizations that last.
Peer-to-Peer Fundraising Tiers
The Chase the Light 5K offers participants the option to do peer-to-peer fundraising! Meaning that you can fundraise with your friends, find donors for your team, or raise extra funds for IncuBrighter in whatever way makes you happy! We are in the midst of putting together rewards for our fundraisers too! Which means that your hard work gets rewarded!
Flicker Tier fundraisers will receive an IncuBrighter t-shirt when they meet their fundraising goal
