Event Name: Interplanetary 5k Run
Venue: Peoria Riverfront Museum
Venue address: 222 SW Washington St. Peoria, Illinois 61602 USA
Event Start: March 23, 2013 - 9:00 a.m.


This was a family oriented event featuring a competitive 5K race, a 1 mile fitness walk, and a ½ mile kids’ fun run. Participants could Walk or run through portions of the world’s largest model of the solar system, and experienced an out of this world Run! Runners followed the routes of interplanetary explorers through the solar system from the Earth to Mercury, Venus and Mars. The total distance for the 5K runners was equal to the distance from Earth to Jupiter. This is a yearly event that is athletic, educational, and fun for the whole family! We have participated in this and other events for the museum in the past but this was the first time at the new downtown location, and what a location it is! This years event drew in a record crowd and a good time was had by all. Weather for the day was overcast and slightly chilly but nothing the Empires finest couldn't handle!
