The Healthy Heart Hustle 5K starts at 8:00 AM in Freeport, Illinois, so plan your travel and pre-race logistics accordingly. Despite its name, this event offers a 1-mile distance rather than a full 5K, making it accessible for runners and walkers of varying fitness levels. Held at Family Healthcare Center in the Burchard Hills area, the race takes place on July 18, 2026. Entry fees range from $30 to $40. This shorter distance format works well if you're looking for a low-key local event or using it as a warm-up before tackling longer races in the region.
