Run 4 the Goo!

Run 4 the Goo! is a fun 5K run and walk held in Arenzville, Illinois, as part of the town's annual Burgoo festival, which celebrates its 186th year. Participants receive a free cup of burgoo, a local specialty, and enjoy a lively atmosphere with vendors, carnival games, and free entertainment including live music. The event supports local service groups and the Prairieland United Way, benefiting communities in several counties.

A virtual 5K option is available for those who cannot attend in person. The race course map is accessible online, and group discounts are offered to encourage family and friends to join the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
