About the event

Come run with us along the river for a Spirits Run with a seriously cool twist!

March 6 is National Frozen Food Day, celebrating the invention of flash freezing — freezing food so fast that it locks in flavor and freshness.

We're celebrating the only way Spirits Run knows how: with a run, a frozen treat, and a party.

Choose your distance: a 5K or a 10K along the beautiful Fox River.

All paces welcome — this is about fun, friends, and frozen bananas, not finish-line pressure. After the run, EVERYONE gets a chocolate-covered frozen banana. Then stay for the after-party with raffles and fun! Spirits Run is Illinois' statewide 5K adventure series — themed, family-friendly runs rooted in local flavor, on our way to all 102 Illinois counties.

Come be part of the story in South Elgin. Kane County.
