About the Event

Join us for a 5K Fun Run/Walk benefiting the American Heart Association, proudly sponsored by the Miss Illinois Scholarship Organization. This event is open to participants of all ages and fitness levels - whether you run, jog, or walk, every step makes a difference.

Proceeds from this event will support life - saving research, education, and advocacy efforts aimed at preventing cardiovascular disease and improving heart health. Together, we will honor the lives lost to cardiovascular disease and support survivors and their families who continue to face its challenges every day.

Come together as a community to raise awareness, celebrate strength, and resilience, and help build a future with healthier hearts for all. Lace up your shoes, wear red, and help us make an impact - one step at a time.

At registration there will be hearts to put the name of your loved one who you run/walk for. Red = Survivors; White = For loved ones we lost
