The 3rd annual Run Forest Run 10k, 5k and kid’s fun run will be held Saturday October 24th at the Oakhurst Forest Preserve. In only 3 years this run has gone for a small church event to a professional timed race that supports local charities. This year among the several local charities that will receive donations are The Philoxenia House, The Hesed House and The Wheaton Family Shelter.
The run is designed to be great for everyone from advances running to families. It is a mulit-surface course takes you through the Oakhurst preserve and around the lake. This year we have several local singing, cheers groups and troops on the course to support the runners. The two groups who show the most spirit will receive the runners’ choices award and a donation to their organization.
Check in starts at 7am, the 10k goes of at 8:30am, the 5k at 8:45am and the kids run at 10am. The race is to be follow by an awards festival and bond fire. To register and be guaranteed a technical shirt go to active.com. Race day registrations is available.
Come out, have a great time and support local charities and youth organizations.
