RC Athletic Club Grand Prix
The RC Athletic Club Grand Prix is a points series hosted by RC Athletic Club and run as part of ShaZam Racing events in Peoria, IL. The event listing is for December 12, 2026, in Peoria, IL at 311 SW Water St Ste 1, and the series is built around multiple ShaZam Racing races.
Participants become eligible for Grand Prix scoring by completing at least four of seven designated ShaZam Racing events; additional races increase a competitor's total points. Points are awarded by place with the following scale: 1st 100, 2nd 90, 3rd 80, 4th 70, 5th 60, 6th and over 50. Age grading is applied for runners younger than 20 and older than 30; ages 20 to 30 are treated as the open class and are not age graded. Age-graded times and points are published the Monday after each event.
The seven included races span the calendar and include the Shuffler 5K, Blarney Blitz, Steamboat Classic (noted as double points), Running Back to the 80s, Detweiller at Dark, Chocolate Turkey, and Run, Run, Rudolph. Awards are issued as RC Outfitters gift certificates across categories such as Overall, Age Graded Overall, Masters, Age Graded Masters, and Age Graded age groups. Age graded age group prizes for top three places are listed as $150, $100, and $50. Participants who complete four of the seven events receive an RC Athletic Club shirt, with shirts available at packet pickup for Run, Run, Rudolph. Prizes are mailed the week of December 14. Double dipping in prize payouts is not allowed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
