The Racine Area Running Club is honored to announce that we will be hosting the 2nd Annual Ted Miller Memorial Run this fall, which is a 5K event to remember, honor, and celebrate the life and running legacy of longtime RARC member, Racine area runner, and friend: Ted Miller.
Ted Miller passed away suddenly on Saturday, August 20, 2022. Ted was a dedicated runner from Racine, WI where he excelled in running. Ted was a Racine Area Running Club (RARC) member, RARC Vice President and was dedicated to promoting the benefits of running in the Southeast Wisconsin community. He earned his bachelor's degree from UW-Parkside in Kenosha where he ran track and cross country. He developed his passion for running at a young age earning him 3x Collegiate All American in Track and Field. Ted won the Racine Lighthouse Run 10 Mile Race twice and was inducted into the Racine Lighthouse Run Hall of Fame at age 46. Ted sold running shoes at Merritt’s Running Center which led to a career in the shoe business and spend the last 20 years at the Weyco Group. More than anything, Ted was the ultimate nice guy and family man. To keep the spirit of “Teddy” alive and promote the sport he loved so much, the RARC is hosting the First Annual Ted Miller Memorial 5K to be held at J.I. Case High School in Racine, WI. Part of the proceeds from the event will be donated to Girls On The Run of Southeastern Wisconsin on the behalf of the Ted Miller family.
This year, Ted's Run will take place on Sunday, September 29th, 2024. The race will be held at J.I. Case High School. The start/finish line will be located directly West of the parking lot and follow the beautiful paved trails near the school. The route is a USATF certified course. The race will be chip timed with timing provided by Wisconsin Running Systems. Walkers are also welcomed!
