We will of course have some music to motivate your body for this run, and fabulous giveaways including an event shirt! Onsite registration is not available this year. Please register early!! No refunds as all the money goes to the many programs that Keep Northern Illinois Beautiful has! Ages 1-14 are free! Make this a fun family event!
