F3 Naperville Foundation 5K

Welcome to the F3 Naperville Foundation ('F3NF') 5K Race/Walk Event!

The 2024 edition of the F3NF 5K will be held on Sunday, September 22th, 2024 at St. James Park in Warrenville, IL for the 3rd straight year! This 5K event is the Foundation's premier fundraising event and we have established a goal of raising $30,000 to support locally registered charitable organizations and humanitarian causes to help make our community stronger. Each registration is tax-deductible and if you're feeling generous, there is an opportunity for incremental donations. Additionally, there are sponsorships available for all levels!

The Course

We will once again be running on a beautiful USATF certified 5k course at the beautiful St. James Farm property in Warrenville, IL.  The course itself is an undulating crushed limestone path that weaves through the prairie and woods with views of the horse barns towards the beginning and end of the looped course.  For more information on the route, please see the link below. All registrations before August 25th will be guaranteed to receive a magnificent, limited edition F3 5K t-shirt! (Shirts are sized in Men, Women, and Kid sizes.)

To help make this event even MORE fun and family-friendly, there will be a Kona Ice truck on-site all morning for each child to receive a FREE crushed ice cup! Have your kids run or walk any of the events and then treat them to a special treat to celebrate their accomplishment!

Race Day Parking

Parking  is FREE! Located outside the special use Entrance at St. James Farm In Warrenville, IL. Click Here for a map to the parking area.  The special event parking is immediately adjacent to the start and finish line of the 5k which is preferable to the main entrance parking lot.  Volunteers will be assisting with parking if you have any concerns. 

T-shirt and Bib Pickup

You'll be able to pick up your shirts and bibs before the event or the morning of the race.  To avoid lines on race day, we recommend picking up your shirt and bibs Saturday, Sept 21st. We will once again set up at the Naperville Running Store (South Location) from 10am-2pm on Saturday.

Bring the whole family out as we will have specific races just for the kids on a smaller kids course. The KIDS RACE will be run AFTER the 5K event has completed. 5 and under kids will run ~1/4 mile and ages 6-9 will run ~1/2 mile.

Thank you for supporting the F3 Naperville Foundation! We can't wait for another tremendous event!
