LET'S KICK SOME GRASS!
Take a break from pounding the pavement and kick some grass with us! The Red Eye 5k features a cross country style course that winds through Inwood Golf Course with a start and finish on the track at Busey Bank Field at Joliet Memorial Stadium.
Pre-registered runners will receive a custom long sleeve t-shirt, and all runners will receive a finisher’s medal. Of course, the Red Eye wouldn’t be the Red Eye without a Bloody Mary waiting for you at the finish line!
The Red Eye 5k is a chip timed race. The overall male / female and masters (age 50+) male / female winners will be awarded prizes. In addition, age group awards will be given to the top 3 male/female finishers in each age bracket.
This year's Red Eye 5k will be run in support of Lightways Hospice and Serious Illness Care.
