Lace up your running shoes and head to Collinsville this April for the Collinsville Hills 5K & Fun Run. Participants can sign up for either the 5K race or one-mile Fun Run through the streets of downtown Collinsville. This exciting event is part of the Collinsville Founders Day Celebration that will also take place downtown. Runners are encouraged to bring their dog to run alongside them to compete in the "Fastest Paws Contest." The fastest runner with a running dog will receive a prize. There will also be a pet costume contest. The 5K run will have first, second and third place winners per age/gender group. Dogs are welcome to run in the 5K as well, though there won't be a pet contest in the 5K. Register early to guarantee an event t-shirt and discounted registration price.
