If you are a mom who is interested in supporting the community through the planning of this type of event, consider membership!
Thank you to all of our sponsors and our event in-kind donors— we could not put on this community fundraising event without you!
We thank our Platinum Sponsors for their donations that underwrite our events, allowing the proceeds to go directly back to the community.
Our own USATF certified race maps can be found here: 5K IL22002WR and 10K IL22003WR
What if the weather is bad? Weather in April in Illinois is unpredictable. At Fox Trot we have seen it all: rain, snow, sleet, wind. The race will be held regardless of weather conditions with the exception of lightning. If there is lightning we will make a race day decision to keep everyone safe.
What if I can’t come? We do not provide refunds. As a non-profit all of our proceeds from Fox Trot are distributed to local organizations that work to improve the lives of children in our communities. Know that your registration fees are going to a good cause.
Are strollers allowed? We are a group of moms and we love to see runners with strollers! We ask that you respect the space and pace of other runners and start in the back of the pack if needed.
Are dogs allowed? Many of us are dog-lovers and owners ourselves but the possible liability issues with dogs is a risk our non-profit can’t take. Please no furry friends on the run.
