Olympic Tavern – Rockford, IL
Your Run, Your Distance — You Decide on Race Day!
This event offers two distance options. No need to commit ahead of time — just show up and run your run.
6.6K Option
Head out from Olympic Tavern toward the Rock Guardians. When you arrive, simply turn around and make your way back to Olympic — a scenic out-and-back along Rockford’s waterfront.
5K Option
Keep the momentum going past the Rock Guardians and all the way to the park. We’ll drive you back to Olympic so you can relax and enjoy the post-race hospitality.
Same shirt. Same medal. Pure personal preference — both distances are celebrated equally.
All paces welcome. All stories welcome. All for ALS.
