Description

Welcome to year three of the Run Stephenson County Event!!

We're thrilled to announce the return of Stephenson County's exclusive, eagerly anticipated 5K, 10K, half-marathon, and cycling event, the Run Stephenson County Event is on October 18, 2025, at 8:00 AM. As a proud component of our Annual Support Campaign, the proceeds we gather annually play a vital role in enabling children, families, seniors, neighbors, and others to access YMCA programs and memberships at discounted rates.

In 2025, we will be utilizing the same course as 2024! All events will start and end at the Jane Addams Trailhead in Orangeville, IL. 

The Half Marathon course offers a flat start and finish with rolling hills in the middle!

The 5k and 10k courses are designed to be PR-worthy, offering runners the opportunity to achieve their personal best in a scenic and supportive environment.

Not up for running? Join the bicycle fun ride! Coming Soon... Bicycle course!

All runners and cyclists at every distance will receive a high-quality tech shirt. All half-marathon finishers will receive a finisher medal, and the top finishers will receive trophies. The 5k and 10k events will provide overall and age group awards.   

Mark your calendars for an unforgettable experience combining Stephenson County's picturesque countryside with captivating tourist attractions. 

This event serves as a significant fundraiser for the YMCA, enabling us to continue our mission of community support. We look forward to seeing you on October 18!
