Event Description
Join Northern Illinois Food Bank for its second annual fun run/walk. The Foodie 5K is a chip-timed fun run/walk open to all ages. All registered participants will receive a shirt, a $2 food truck voucher to be used at the post-race festival and more. Participating food trucks as of press time are Babycakes, Chicago Pizza Boss, Cupcakes for Courage, Fat Shallot, Grill Chasers, The Slide Ride, Toasty Cheese Mobile Eatery and Yum Dum.
All participants are encouraged to fundraise, and anyone who fundraises more than $100 is eligible to receive prizes that include a waist pack runner’s belt, a folding cooler chair and an Amazon gift card. All funds will benefit Northern Illinois Food Bank, where $1 donated provides $8 worth of food for neighbors in need. Northern Illinois Food Bank provides food to more than 71,000 people each week through a network of more than 800 community food pantries and feeding programs in 13 counties.
Registration for each race is $35, with an early-bird discount of $30 available through March 2 for the DuPage County race. The registration fee for ages 6-12 is $15, and ages 0-5 are free. There will be no registration the day of the race.
