About

Beat The Eagle 5K takes place in Lombard, Illinois, on November 14, 2026, with two events on the schedule. The 5K (3.1 miles) starts at 8 a.m. and the Kids 1 Mile Timed Run follows at 8:45 a.m.

Timing the children's mile is a nice touch, since it gives young runners a genuine result rather than a participation ribbon, and the gap between the two starts means parents can race the 5K and still be at the line to watch. For adults, 3.1 miles is the distance to pick when you want a hard effort without a long build behind it: a month of consistent running with a couple of faster sessions is enough to race it properly. Warm up first; a 5K offers no room to ease in.
