Spring Fever 5K and 10K

Gear up for the Spring Fever 5K and 10K, taking place on Saturday, April 11, 2026, in Altoona, Wisconsin. This lively event kicks off from the Altoona Hobbs Ice Arena, offering runners a choice of distances to shake off the winter chill and embrace the spring air. You can conquer the 5K, challenge yourself with the 10K, or truly test your endurance with the unique 15K Challenge, which allows you to run both races for the price of one. Starting times are convenient, with the 5K at 8:30 AM and the 10K following at 9:15 AM.

Runners can anticipate typical race day conditions with highs around 54°F and lows around 34°F, alongside a modest 14% chance of precipitation, making for potentially crisp and invigorating running weather. The Spring Fever race is more than just a run; it’s an opportunity to compete, with the overall 10K winner earning a $200 cash prize and the esteemed title of ITC Dash for the Cash Champion. While the 15K Challenge offers no additional awards, it presents a fantastic personal goal for those looking to push their limits. A portion of the profits supports the American Lung Cancer Society, adding a meaningful cause to your stride.

Packet pickup and day-of-race registration open at 7:30 AM at Hobbs Ice Arena, concluding 30 minutes before the first race. Ample parking is available in the lot adjacent to the arena or on nearby streets. All participants receive technical running socks with their registration, and awards await the top male and female finishers, as well as the top three in each age division.
