About the Event

Hello Runners! 

We are so happy to announce that this year's event will be highlighting Breaking Away; a non profit in Grundy County that helps victims of domestic violence break away from their abusers in an emergency situation. They provide shelter, clothing, food, transportation and necessities to victims. Their goal is to spread awareness to the community that there are resources out there to help those in domestic situations and they are not alone!

NEW THIS YEAR- Ages 5-17 register at a discount! Only $25

The race will start at Babe’s Tap, 755 S. Broadway St., travel south on Broadway St. to Reed Rd., left and loop through Cardinal Transport and then back north on Broadway.  There is a non-refundable entry fee for early registration which is $35 and if you register 11/16/25 or later it will be $40.
