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 and finishes on the track at ATI Field at Joliet Memorial Stadium.
Pre-registered runners will receive a custom long-sleeve performance 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. Please see the FAQs for age group brackets.
The Red Eye 5k is the third race in the 2021 run3 series. Register for all three Joliet Park District races to receive free custom run3 swag. Click here for more information on run3.
