Description
Join us on July 4th in historic Mt. Carroll, Illinois for the 4th of July Farmers Market 5k, a 5K that blends small‑town charm, a touch of gothic atmosphere, and the energy of a summer Farmers Market morning.
The race starts and finishes at the farmers market, right in the heart of Mt. Carroll’s beautiful historic district. Runners will head up Market Street past vintage storefronts and the Farmers Market area before climbing to Oak Hill Cemetery overlooking the town.
From there, the course follows a quiet back path along the rear of the cemetery, with peaceful views and a true “spirits” moment, before looping back through town on neighborhood streets and returning to the farmers market for the finish.
This is a relaxed, community‑focused event — perfect for runners, walkers, and anyone who loves exploring Illinois’ hidden‑gem towns.
You will receive a T-shirt and Medal plus a day of Farmers Market and to take in the scenery of Mount Carroll!
