About

The Copper Penny Spirits Halloween Eve 5K is an evening road race in the historic town of Vandalia, Illinois, held on October 30, 2026, with the start at 5 p.m. The Halloween-themed event can be run or walked over the full 5K, or 3.1 miles, and it supports local Alzheimer's awareness and support programs.

Road surface and a short distance make this one of the easier races to prepare for. If you already run a few times a week, you are ready; if you plan to walk it, no specific training is needed beyond being comfortable on your feet for an hour. Runners looking for a time should treat the first half mile carefully, since a 5K punishes a fast opening more than any other common distance. Bring a warm layer for afterward.
