Get ready to run, mingle, and maybe even make a match! The Single & Mingle 5K at the Warrenville VFW is a fun, social, community‑driven run designed for anyone who’s single, social, or just looking for a great time with great people.
We’ll kick things off at the Warrenville VFW, then head out on a scenic route that winds past the local cemetery and veteran memorials, honoring the heroes who shaped this community. From there, the course flows through the heart of Warrenville, showcasing the small‑town charm, friendly neighborhoods, and welcoming spirit that make this area special.
Whether you’re running for fitness, fun, or the chance to meet someone new, this 5K brings everyone together for a lighthearted morning of movement, connection, and community pride. After you cross the finish line, stick around at the VFW for music, mingling, and post‑race fun — who knows, you might leave with more than just a finisher’s glow.
Come run, walk, flirt, laugh, and celebrate Warrenville with us. Single or not, everyone’s welcome — but mingling is highly encouraged.
