Eggnog Jog 3K

The Eggnog Jog 3K is a short holiday run in Harvard, Illinois, held at City Hall on West Diggins Street during the Christmas in Harvard weekend. It is a neighborhood-distance race, not a long endurance test, with a 3K format suitable for walkers, new runners, families, and those seeking a seasonal event before the deep winter. The route proceeds from City Hall toward Northfield Park and returns. The race fully embraces the Christmas theme. Participants are encouraged to wear holiday attire, such as reindeer antlers, elf ears, or ugly sweaters. Finishers receive a sip of eggnog at the finish line. The timing also serves as a local jest, occurring six months after Harvard’s Milk Days 5K.
