Running of the Chapters 5K 2026 – The Ope!

The Wisconsin Association for Floodplain, Stormwater, & Coastal Management (WAFSCM) is excited to announce the annual Running of the Chapters 5K run/walk event at this year’s ASFPM National Conference.

The Running of the Chapters 5K Run/Walk is an annual event that has been held during every in person ASFPM Conference since 2013. The race is open to all conference attendees and includes a friendly competition between chapters to win the award, and bragging rights, of the chapter with the most participants.

The race will be held on Wednesday June 3, 2026 at Veterans Park along the Lake Michigan shoreline in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In the spirit of our upper midwestern politeness, we are calling this year’s race “Ope! (lemme just squeeze right past ya there) 5k”, or simply, “The Ope!”

The race will take place on Wednesday June 3, 2026
7:00 am – 10:00 am CST
