Autumn Leaf Run

Autumn Leaf Run is a 5K trail race held in Freeport, Illinois, at Oakdale Nature Preserve. The course loops through diverse terrain, including wide tree-lined trails, moderate hills, prairie areas, bridge crossings, and several single-track sections. The start and finish are in close proximity, and the event uses chip timing for results.

The atmosphere is welcoming and family-friendly, open to all ages and skill levels of runners, walkers, and nature enthusiasts. All proceeds benefit the Freeport Parks Foundation to support Oakdale Nature Preserve projects. Participants enjoy autumn scenery as leaves turn color in the park during the autumn season too.
