Central Iowa’s HOTTEST Road Race!

What

Sweet Corn Festival 5K. We are committed to making this Central Iowa’s premier 5K road race. The 5K run will precede the Sweet Corn Festival’s Parade and Festival. Last year, the combined event drew more than 10,000 people! The last half mile of the 5K will be run on the parade route in front of thousands of spectators. The Sweet Corn Festival 5K is open to all runners and walkers.

When

The race begins at 8 a.m. on Saturday, August 9th.

Why

To help provide lifechanging opportunities and camp programs for at-risk and disadvantaged children through the Wildwood Hills Ranch and to help celebrate the Adel Sweet Corn Festival. Make sure you bring the whole family to enjoy the Sweet Corn Parade and Festival after the race. It makes a great day.

 

Nearly 400 runners await the start of the 2006 Sweet Corn 5k
