The Opie's 116 Spirits Run
About this race
Join us at Opie’s 116 for the Woodford County stop on the Spirits Run • Illinois Adventure Series — a statewide journey to complete a 5K in all 102 counties. Roanoke offers a quiet, scenic stretch of prairie roads and a peaceful turnaround at the historic Roanoke Township Cemetery, creating the perfect blend of small‑town charm and classic Spirits Run atmosphere.
This untimed, community‑focused 5K begins and ends at Opie’s 116, where runners will check in, grab their swag, and enjoy the post‑run celebration. The route follows safe, low‑traffic streets with a simple out‑and‑back design, making it friendly for walkers, runners, strollers, and anyone collecting their next county stamp
