Kellsie's Hope Foundation 5k & 10k Race~ Now Virtual~ No Longer In-Person

Due to a surge in COVID cases and exposure among our race committee and runners, we have made the difficult decision to convert our in-person 5k/10k to a virtual race.

Your registration will automatically be converted to a virtual race. You will still receive your race t-shirt and goodie bag. Packet pick-up will be Sunday, October 3rd from 9am-12pm at the Kellsie’s Hope office. Our address is 460 Regency Centre in Collinsville (located in the rear of the back building in Regency Centre).

The first 30 registrants to pick-up their packet will also receive a medal (which were reserved for the division winners).

Please share your virtual race photo with us on Facebook or Instagram with the hashtag #KellsiesHopeVirtualRace. We will be giving away a $50 Amazon gift card to one winner on November 10th. Use the hashtag to enter and make sure your privacy settings allow us to see.

We are heartbroken to cancel our in-person race and celebration, but the safety of our community is our top priority. Multiple of our vaccinated volunteers have tested positive. Your registration fee benefited Kellsie’s Hope Foundation and childhood cancer research. Should you request a refund instead of a virtual race, please call Emily at 618-972-2650 by Sunday.

Thank you for your understanding!
