  RUN LIKE A CHAMPION

  The Bob Blazier Run For The Arts is a fun, family friendly way to be active and support the community. Winding through the beautiful residential streets of Crystal Lake, the 5K Run and the 1Mile Run/Walk both move through a flat, easy to navigate course. While some register for a fun, carefree, and easygoing way to experience the spirit and goodwill of the community, others run the 5K with a more competitive spirit. Whether competing against others or simply trying to outpace their own personal bests, experienced runners put themselves to the test every year in the Blazier Run. Medals are given out to the fastest times in each age group, and the overall male and female runners with the fastest time take home gift certificates to Running Depot as well as coveted Bob-Bobblehead trophies.
