The Elgin Valley Fox Trot is celebrating its 33rd year with a few new elements, including giving runners and walkers the opportunity to raise money for participating local charities.

The event offers races for all levels of competition, including a 10 mile run, a 5K run and a 2 mile fun walk for the entire family. The race is endorsed by the Chicago Area Runners Association (CARA).

The race, which historically draws over 2,000 runners, has a loyal following of participants and volunteers, as well as on-lookers who line the neighborhood streets to cheer on the runners.
Runners look forward to a challenging course, which begins in the Center City area, and takes them through beautiful historic neighborhoods, as well as the winding hills and ravines of Trout Park Fen and Lords Park.
