Iceman Series 2025-26

The Iceman Series runs from December 13, 2025 to February 7, 2026 in Springfield, IL (1315 W Lawrence Ave, 62704). It is a progressive set of winter races held across December, January, and a separate February half marathon event. The December and January races form a points series: 15 points for participating, 1 point per kilometer run, and age-group points in five-year brackets (15 for 1st, 14 for 2nd, 13 for 3rd, and so on). The February half marathon event is separate from the points contest and includes a finisher medal, an Iceman shirt, and awards for top finishers; the February 10K and 5K include a finisher medal, a t-shirt, and awards for the top three male and female finishers overall. Runners who register for the full series receive an Iceman Series quarter-zip shirt at the first event and the Iceman shirt at the half marathon. Each event begins and ends at a local restaurant or bar and registration includes a $5 coupon for food and drinks.
