Routes

We've provided some possible route options for the 5K. These are not required so feel free to run, walk, or bike anywhere! No need to be in Illinois!

Winnetka Routes

We've provided 2 route options in Winnetka. The first loop is along the neighborhood streets and the second is along busier roads like Green Bay and Hibbard. Both begin and end at The Grand Food Store.

Green Bay Trail (out and back)

Accessible to any neighbor close to Glencoe, Winnetka, and Wilmette. This route is an easy straight shot and no need to worry about any vehicle traffic. Limited parking depending on where you enter the trail. We suggest going to the 1.51 mile mark and turning around back to where you started.

Skokie Lagoons (Out and back)

This is a more senic route for those who want to be in nature. We suggest running to the 1.51 mile mark and then turning around to head back to where you started. Parking is available along the lagoons!

Wilmette

Start at WJHS and run the loop. Plenty of parking is available at the school. This is a more simple route through the neighborhoods of Wilmette and avoids busier roads!
