Get ready to lace up on September 27, 2026, for a fun 10K or 5K adventure that starts and finishes in the heart of Downtown DeKalb! Your route will wind through charming historic neighborhoods, hug the scenic Kishwaukee River at Prairie Park, cruise through Northern Illinois University's campus and iconic Huskie Stadium, all while enjoying live entertainment from the Huskie Marching Band, Jazz Band, and Steelband along the way.
