About the Chilly Chili 4.37 mile run at Green Gables
The course runs through the grounds of a historic property on Lake Bloomington, so there is water in view and a sense of place that most winter races lack. It goes ahead rain, snow, or hard freeze, which tends to self-select for people who find that appealing rather than alarming.
Chili and a drink are waiting at the finish, which matters more than usual given the time of year. Awards go to the top male and female finishers, but also to the best dressed and the least dressed, so the costume situation at the start line is worth arriving early to witness.
