The Fat Ass 5K & Street Party for Charity was invented on a napkin at Celtic Mist Pub on St. Patrick’s Day in 2008. The race route runs through Downtown Springfield, Illinois. We have donated over $2 million since 2008. The race includes beer, corn dog, donut, and ice cream stops along with live music and entertainment throughout the race route. The 5K is followed by a street party that includes cold Pepsi, Coors beer, barbecue, and more live music. All profits go to charity. Please help us continue supporting our charities in 2026.
Tickets on sale SOON!
