About the race...
This inter-city race starts at Miller Park in Bloomington, includes one loop in the park, exiting to Wood Street, then north on Main Street, through downtown Bloomington and Illinois State University and then finishes at Fairview Park in Normal.
Bus transportation: Park at Fairview Park and run back to your car! Bus transportation available to Miller Park before the race and back to Miller Park after the awards. Busing before the race will run from Fairview Park to Miller Park from 6:00 AM-7:00 AM. First bus after race will leave Fairview Park for Miller Park at 9:00 a.m.
The race originated in 1985 as the Intercity 10K. After two years the race was changed to a 5 mile run. For years, the 5 mile run was a little longer than 5 miles. In 1993, the Lake Run club began organizing the event, and made the 5 mile course accurate. The race has grown to approximately 500 runners.
