PrairieFest 5K

The PrairieFest 5K and One Mile Prairie Dog Jog take place in Oswego, Illinois, organized by the Oswegoland Park District. The event features a chip-timed 5K run through Oswego's friendly neighborhoods and a one-mile jog around Prairie Point Community Park. It offers a family-friendly atmosphere celebrating Father's Day, with medals awarded to the top three finishers in each 5K age group and overall winners for both races.

Participants registering by early June are guaranteed a race shirt. The event includes packet pickup before race day and is supported by local partners and professional timing by ShaZam Racing. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
