43rd Annual Reeds Lake Resolution Run

Join us on December 31, 2025, in East Grand Rapids, Kent, for the 43rd Annual Reeds Lake Resolution Run, a cherished New Year's Eve tradition featuring a scenic, USATF-certified 4-mile course around the picturesque Reeds Lake. Starting at 2:00 PM near East Grand Rapids Middle School and finishing at Collins Park, this event welcomes runners and walkers of all ages to celebrate community spirit, personal goals, and new beginnings. New this year is a kids race at 1:30 PM for children 12 and under, complete with a special course and unique disco-ball medals. Since its inception in 1982, the Resolution Run has grown into a vibrant celebration, attracting over 700 participants last year who braved the chilly weather to support Guiding Light Works. Participants will enjoy custom die-cast medals for the first 1,000 finishers, cozy beanies for all, and exciting awards across various divisions, making it the perfect way to close out the year with family and friends.
