Kickin’ Up The Dust 5K

July 25 • 10:00 AM • Plano, IL Saddle up, partner — we’re takin’ this run straight to the ranch! Join us at Fox Ranch in Plano for a western‑themed 5K where the boots are optional, but the attitude sure ain’t. We’re going full Daisy Duke meets Cowboy Up, so dust off those denim shorts, grab your cowboy hats, shine up those belt buckles, and if the fellas want to show up in chaps… well, we ain’t stoppin’ ya. This is a summer run with a whole lot of sass and a whole lot of country charm. The course winds through the open ranch property and surrounding countryside, giving you that wide‑open‑spaces feeling while you kick up some dust and have a whole lot of fun doing it. Stick around after the finish for post‑race drinks, music, photos, and ranch‑style mingling — because the fun doesn’t stop when the clock does.  Prizes & Shenanigans 鸞 Best Dressed (Costume Contest) We’re lookin’ for the boldest, wildest, rootin’‑tootin’ western getup out there. Winner gets a bottle of wine — because lookin’ that good deserves a toast. 磊 First Place Runner Fastest on the ranch earns an extra drink ticket — you ran hard, now sip easy.  10th Place Runner Lucky number ten takes home a cowbell — because every ranch needs more cowbell.  Last Place Runner Our “Dead‑Last Cowboy Award” goes to the final finisher, who’ll receive a roll of toilet paper… or at least the cardboard tube, since ya took so long, pardner.
