Chili Chase 5K

The Chili Chase 5K Run and Kids Pepper Dash is a family-friendly event held in Belleville, Illinois, at 300 East Main Street. This popular 5K run supports scholarships for the Greater Belleville Chamber of Commerce Leadership Belleville program, helping companies that cannot afford full tuition. The event is a festive addition to the Annual Belleville Chili Cook-off, allowing participants to run or walk in the morning before enjoying chili later in the day guilt-free.

The Kids Pepper Dash follows the 5K race, making it a fun occasion for all ages. The event takes place rain or shine, with a packet pick-up scheduled a few days prior. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
