Description

The Annual Raceway 5K and 3K Fun Run/Walk on the historic Meadowdale International Raceway in Raceway Woods in Carpentersville. Experience all the curves, straightaways, bank turns, and hills this challenging race has to offer. Or take a leisurely pace through one of the most scenic preserves in northeastern Illinois. This is a rare event where you can bring your dog for some exercise and some special swag. 

Participants of all kinds, from competitors to walkers and dog enthusiasts, will converge at the historic Meadowdale International Raceway. This event features a 3k, 5k, and 10k run hosted by the Rotary Club of Carpentersville.

Located within the now 90-acre Carpentersville Forest preserve known as Raceway Woods, this venue offers a unique experience with its old-growth forests, undulating terrain, and preservation of the original racetrack paths. Feel free to bring your furry friend along for some enjoyable exercise, and select from the 3k, 5k, or 10k courses. For more information, visit carpentersvillerotary.org.

Proceeds from this event will benefit the charities of the Rotary Club of Carpentersville including the Carpentersville F.I.S.H. Food Pantry, and Operation Warm – new coats purchased for Carpentersville kids in need. Thanks for supporting these efforts. We look forward to seeing you out there.
