USA Powerlifting returns to DuPage for the third time with the 2026 Raw Nationals, June 10–14 at The Westin Chicago Lombard. Across five days of competition, more than 1,300 athletes will compete to advance their national standing, earn or extend pro status, win prize money, and secure a coveted spot on the international team. Powerlifting is one of the fastest-growing strength sports in the U.S., with participation surging in recent years particularly among youth and women.
The DuPage Triple Crown returns to deliver a multi-stop cycling showdown across Glen Ellyn (Ray Whalen Builders Tour of Lake Ellyn on July 18), Winfield (Winfield Criterium and Summerfest on July 19), and Lombard (Lombard Cycling Classic on July 21), turning DuPage County into a connected stage of speed, strategy, and endurance. From breakaways to final sprints, each stop brings its own course identity and intensity. The series culminates in Lombard, with final scores determining the five cyclists who will walk away with ultimate bragging rights and a cash prize.
