The Waterloo Library & Historical Society presents the 2026 Bookish 5k & the Cookie Fun Run (If You Give A Pig A Party)!
Join us for our 3rd Annual Bookish 5K: Stories in Stride event with a different theme for this year. 2026’s 5k theme is TBD. The first 100 Bookish 5K participants will receive a book-themed medal and T-shirt.
“If you give a pig a party”, they will probably party. When they party, they will probably feel guilty. But if they do this fun-run they can have their cake and eat it too!
This family friendly race, originally inspired by Laura Numeroff's "If You Give A Mouse A Cookie", will tickle your taste buds AND benefit the Waterloo Library & Historical Society. This year we will be eating CAKE, but don't worry, you don't have to eat them along your run. We'll have some ready for when you are done!
If you are participating in our original 1 mile fun run, there will be 2 pieces of cake in total. So bring your appetite and running shoes to race 1 mile around the Library area of Waterloo.
Participants will receive a Cake themed medal and registrations under 5 will receive their own copy of this year’s book.
Entry fees:
5K walk/run:$35
Cookie Run: $15
Children under 5: Free
*In the event of a cancellation, there will be no refunds; your entry fee will be used as a donation to the Waterloo Library & Historical Society.
