Event Overview
The Superhero Fun Run 3K is an untimed athletic event held at the Sensory Garden Playground in Lisle. This community event is open to participants of all ages and abilities, who are encouraged to complete the course wearing superhero-themed costumes or attire. The event is organized by the Wheaton Park District, with a portion of the proceeds supporting the Play for All Playground & Garden Foundation.
The course utilizes a variety of surfaces, including paved streets and crushed limestone or unpaved trails through the Danada Forest Preserve. Because of these varying surfaces, participants using strollers or wheelchairs are advised of the terrain. The event features on-course entertainment from costumed characters who cheer on the runners and walkers.
Participant Information
Multiple registration categories are available based on age and participation type:
- 3K (Adult Registration, ages 13 and up)

All registered participants receive giveaway items and refreshments following the completion of the course. Post-race activities at the playground include music and character meet and greets.

Preparation for the event includes a packet pick-up scheduled at the Central Athletic Complex in Wheaton two days prior to the run, as well as on-site on the morning of the event.
