5k Fun Run at Imperial Oak Brewing
This event is an untimed 5k fun run organized as part of the 2026 Illinois Brewery Running Series. It takes place at Imperial Oak Brewing in Willow Springs, Illinois, with the route designed to start and end at the brewery and to pass through nearby neighborhood streets.
Registration includes one craft brew from Imperial Oak Brewing at the finish, a choice of Brewery Running Series swag such as a collector's pint glass or a seasonal item, and entry into a prize drawing. Post run activities include music, games, giveaways, and partner goodies. Ten percent of event proceeds are designated to support local nonprofits.
The course is an open course on public roads, so participants must follow all traffic laws. The organizer notes that the event is rain or shine and that there is no bag check. Participants must bring a valid ID; those under 21 are eligible for a nonalcoholic beverage at no charge. Dogs and strollers are permitted with appropriate care, subject to Imperial Oak Brewing policies. The event emphasizes an informal, community oriented atmosphere rather than competition.
