About this Event
5k Fun Run x Spiteful Brewing
Part of the 2026 Illinois Brewery Running Series
Get ready for a fun, active morning with your Brewery Running Series crew! We’re teaming up with Spiteful Brewing for a 5k-ish fun run filled with miles, smiles, and great local beer.
Come in costume and join us for a SPOOK-tacular time!
Start and finish right at the taproom—run, walk, or jog your way through a scenic route we’ve mapped to show off the best of the surrounding neighborhood. No pressure, no timing… just good vibes, fresh air, and a refreshing craft beverage waiting for you at the finish line.
Your Registration Includes
- One (1) craft brew from Spiteful at the finish
- Choice of BRS swag: collector’s pint glass or seasonal item
- Entry into our prize drawing: merch, beer, and other fun surprises
- Access to all the post-run fun: music, games, giveaways & partner goodies
- A built-in feel-good moment: 10% of proceeds support local nonprofits
At the Brewery Running Series, our mission is simple:
Be active. Have fun. Give back.
Thanks to runners like you, we've donated over $700k to local organizations—and counting!
Join us on October 25 for a fun, community-driven morning at Spiteful. Spots are limited, and many events sell out—so don’t wait!
