River to River Runners - Prediction Runs What is a Prediction Run? A prediction run is entirely different from other races that you’ve run in the past. Rather than finishing first or running the fastest, the object of a prediction run is to finish as close to your predicted time as possible. Can I use any sort of electronic device (i.e. watch, heart rate monitor, sundial, car, etc)? No, that would make it much too easy. No watches allowed! How long is the course? You won’t find out till you get there! Usually between 2.5 miles and 4.5 miles. How much does it cost? $1….Probably the cheapest race you will ever run. How do I get involved? Just show up.  The race times and locations are listed below and on our events page.  The races are open to members and non-members. However club members earn points at each race for a chance to win some money at the Annual River to River Runners Banquet held in January.

The final race of the 2026 Winter Challenge Trail Series is here—and it’s the big one. On March 22, we take on a great 10K at Hickory Knolls Discovery Center in St. Charles, wrapping up the series with one last shot at winter trail glory. The course has a little bit of everything: dirt paths, crushed limestone, a few short climbs, and long stretches that test your pacing. After the 5K and 8K, this race is where it all comes together. It’s longer, it’s tougher, and yeah—your legs are probably going to feel it. Trail conditions? Total wildcard. Could be slick, could be muddy, could be fast. Either way, you’re earning that finish. Every runner gets a finisher medal and winter swag. If you’ve completed all three races, you’ll finally get to piece your medal set together and score the bonus gear for finishing the full challenge. Whether you're chasing a strong finish or just out to complete the series, this 10K is the perfect way to close it out. Show up, push hard, and enjoy the fact t

Hit the Mother Road with us for the Route 66 Roadhouse Spirits Run, a fun and relaxed 5K starting and ending at Route 66 Roadhouse.

Your registration includes a drink and a food item from a special event menu when you return. Walkers, joggers, and runners of all paces are welcome — this is a community‑friendly, story‑driven run designed for fun, not competition. Join us for a spirited stop along our 102‑county Illinois Spirits Run Series and enjoy a little Route 66 magic along the way.
