Brrrrr... baby, it's cold outside. Good. Around here, we don't spend winter hiding under blankets and counting down the days until spring. We get outside and celebrate it! The Waukesha JanBoree is all about embracing everything that makes a Wisconsin winter great, and the Frosty 5K is your chance to be part of the action. A longtime JanBoree favorite and a proud stop on the Wisconsin Chilly Willy Winter Run Series, the Frosty 5K invites runners, walkers, families, and winter enthusiasts alike to bundle up, lace up, and tackle the season head-on. The fast, flat, two-lap course winds through beautiful Frame Park and along the scenic Fox River, offering a perfect setting for PR hunters, casual runners, and anyone looking to shake off a little cabin fever. Crisp air, frozen breath, and the crunch of winter beneath your feet... this is what January running is all about. And when you cross the finish line, the fun is far from over. JanBoree fills the entire weekend with more than 35 events and activities throughout Waukesha, creating one giant winter celebration for all ages. Sure, it'll be cold. That's kind of the point. Every January, hundreds of runners trade excuses for extra layers and prove that Wisconsin winters aren't something to endure. They're something to enjoy. So zip up that jacket, pull on those gloves, and join us for a No Mopin', Nose Nippin', Cold Snappin' Good Time at the Frosty 5K!

Race Against Human Trafficking (powered by Plant A Seed) Saturday, January 23, 2027 — 8:00 AM MT Downtown El Paso, TX 1 Mile Fun Run · 5K · Virtual 5K · Lollipop Kids Run "It's Time to Step Into Action, Speak Out, and Make a Difference" — a community 5K/Walk raising awareness and funds against human trafficking. Every step supports Plant A Seed's work to fight exploitation. Our Mission: Awareness. Education. Prevention. The Race Against Human Trafficking is more than a race. It is an opportunity to bring our community together, learn, and move into action. Education is at the heart of this event. Human trafficking does not always look the way it is portrayed in movies or television. Through the race, we connect participants with credible information, local organizations, and resources to better understand trafficking, recognize warning signs, know where to seek help, and continue these conversations beyond race day. We also want to empower parents and caregivers to have age-appropriate conversations with young people about safety, healthy relationships, boundaries, online interactions, and asking for help. Our goal is not to create fear. It is to create awareness, build knowledge, strengthen connections, and empower action. Awareness starts the conversation. Education builds understanding. Prevention moves us into action. Beneficiary: A portion of race proceeds will be donated to United Way of El Paso County, which will allocate the funds to organizations focused on anti-trafficking education and direct services for victims and survivors. What Your Sponsorship & Participation Builds Your sponsorship helps build and grow the race, expand its reach, and strengthen our focus on awareness, education, and prevention.

US Road Running Races US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people. Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official. You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel. Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile. We will be glad to see you at the start line. A quick race-day note: because many US Road Running events are small local races, we normally have one or two staff members at each race. EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish. Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help. View Race Course, Results, and Race Information on the US Road Running race page.

Take Flight Kids Dash Returns to Winterfest 2027! Ready for takeoff! Downtown Perrysburg, Inc. is excited to bring back the Take Flight Kids Dash, a free Winterfest favorite for children ages 2–10. Inspired by Perrysburg’s iconic airplane sculpture, this fun-filled dash is all about imagination, movement, and having fun. It’s not about who crosses the finish line first! It’s a great way for little ones to burn off some energy while enjoying all the winter fun at Winterfest. The dash will take place on Saturday, January 23, 2027, at 2:00 p.m. on E. Second Street between Louisiana and Elm streets. The road will close at 1:30 p.m. Look for the Dave’s Running arch, where young flyers can gather and stretch before takeoff. Children will be divided into age groups, with the youngest participants going first. Every participant will receive an airplane kit to build and enjoy, giving them a fun way to keep the spirit of Take Flight going long after the dash is over. Pre-registration is required for all participants. A special thank-you to Dave’s Running for sponsoring the Take Flight Kids Dash and for being a longtime supporter of Downtown Perrysburg, Inc. We can’t wait to see our youngest Winterfest visitors ready to spread their wings and take flight!

Information US Road Running Races US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people. Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official. You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel. Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile. We will be glad to see you at the start line. A quick race-day note: because many US Road Running events are small local races, we normally have one or two staff members at each race. EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish. Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help. View Race Course, Results, and Race Information on the US Road Running race page.
