About the Event

Join us on Sunday, April 11th at 7:00 PM for the Duke’s Sunset Run in Crystal Lake. This evening 5K begins and ends at Duke’s Alehouse & Kitchen, then follows a smooth, atmospheric route toward the local cemetery before looping back under the early‑evening sky. It’s a perfect blend of movement, community, and a little nighttime magic.

This is a relaxed, timed event open to all paces. Walkers, runners, strollers, and first‑timers are welcome. Every participant receives a medal, shirt, and event swag, plus a themed drink at Duke’s after the run. Duke’s will be open for food and drinks, making it an ideal place to gather and celebrate after crossing the finish line.

The night setting adds a fun twist to this run—glow gear, lights, and costumes are encouraged. The route is safe, visible, and full of character, highlighting one of Crystal Lake’s most beloved local spots.

Run the sunset. Celebrate at Duke’s. Experience the spirit of the night.

The 2nd annual holds much more- we now have timing, 1st place pins, age division winner pins and last place pins (everyone matters!!)
