Set for Saturday, March 7, 2026, the Robert Reed Spirits Run at Village Inn offers a distinctive 5K experience through the charming streets of Skokie, Illinois. This out-and-back course begins and ends at the beloved Village Inn, a local hub known for its community spirit and hospitality. Runners will embark on a crisp, early-season journey through quiet neighborhood streets, leading towards the historic Memorial Park Cemetery.

What truly sets this race apart is its unique blend of local history and a "Spirits Run" atmosphere, described as a little gothic and sentimental. The turnaround point within the cemetery grounds is near the resting place of Robert Reed, the renowned actor who portrayed Mike Brady in "The Brady Bunch," offering participants a moment of reflection. This "part race, part homage" creates a meaningful and memorable morning, perfect for both seasoned runners aiming for a personal best or those simply looking to enjoy a run rooted in local character and community pride.

Runners can anticipate typical race day conditions with highs around 42°F (6°C) and lows near 25°F (-4°C), accompanied by a low 11% chance of precipitation, making for a refreshing start to March. The welcoming environment of the Village Inn provides a warm start and an energetic finish to this spirited 5K.
