Downs, IL
Entry is $30 now and rises to $35 after Jun 4, 2027, so registering before then saves $5.
The course runs through the village streets and ends on the high school track, so the final stretch feels different from everything that came before it. The terrain is flat throughout, and spectators tend to line the path, which makes the back half move faster than you expect.
