Parking & Shuttle
Due to the size of our crowd and the limited parking available at Elawa Farm, all runners and walkers must park in the Lake Forest Hospital north parking lot, located at 660 N. Westmoreland Road in Lake Forest.
Upon arriving on the hospital campus, follow the directional signs for “Red Ribbon Race Parking.” Once you park, you will see signs for our shuttle buses. We have 2 shuttles operating in both directions beginning at 7:30 a.m. Shuttles will leave approximately every 5 minutes. The shuttle will drop you off right at the race registration area at Elawa. Please give yourself ample time to park and catch the shuttle for check-in. You might also consider carpooling or riding your bike.
Registration and Check-In
Check-In will begin at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday morning. We suggest you arrive no later than 8:30 a.m. If you have pre-registered and paid, you will simply need to give your last name at the race check-in desk. You will then be handed your race-pack and bib number (for runners) or your walkers-pack (for walkers). If you have not yet paid, we will accept cash, check, or credit card at check-in.
