0:00
Speaker 1: It's time for another informational edition of talk Line here
0:02
Speaker 1: at wy X and Radio. Good morning, I'm Steve Marco.
0:05
Speaker 1: It is time to blow the lid off of one
0:08
Speaker 1: of the most popular activities of our Northern Illinois area
0:11
Speaker 1: that comes about during our fourth of July holiday weekend.
0:14
Speaker 1: We are less than two weeks away now from this
0:18
Speaker 1: event taking place during the twenty twenty five Dixon Petunia Festival,
0:22
Speaker 1: and we are so happy to have our good friend
0:24
Speaker 1: joining us this morning to talk about the twenty twenty
0:28
Speaker 1: five Reagan Run. This is a staple for our Northern
0:31
Speaker 1: Illinois area. Friends. This is a main event for Northern Illinois.
0:35
Speaker 1: It has been for how long now, twenty twenty five
0:39
Speaker 1: years the anniversary.
0:41
Speaker 2: Thank you.
0:42
Speaker 1: Nancy Varga has been associated with the Reagan Run for
0:48
Speaker 1: these twenty five years. You started with the very first, didn't.
0:52
Speaker 3: You yes in two thousands when we began, and COVID
0:57
Speaker 3: stopped us one year. But we're starting to come back strong.
1:01
Speaker 3: Our numbers are picking up again. So it's been a
1:04
Speaker 3: wonderful journeys.
1:06
Speaker 1: So nice to see you. Welcome to WIX and thank
1:08
Speaker 1: you for joining us on this Monday morning. It's good
1:11
Speaker 1: to have Nancy in studio to talk about this exciting
1:14
Speaker 1: event that will be taking place once again during the
1:17
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five Dicks of Petunia, and it's it's I
1:19
Speaker 1: think that that kind of leads credence to the good
1:22
Speaker 1: news that Nancy is going to share about registration going
1:25
Speaker 1: on right now. It's all kind of together this year
1:28
Speaker 1: as far you just mentioned the anniversary, We've got some
1:32
Speaker 1: other changes that are I think good in the you know,
1:36
Speaker 1: in the Reagan Run perspective, and Nancy's going to talk
1:39
Speaker 1: about all of this coming about with the twenty fifth
1:42
Speaker 1: annual Reagan Run five K run walk. I like to
1:46
Speaker 1: call it a run and a walk, because yeah, it
1:49
Speaker 1: is not just it is, yes, a competitive run for
1:51
Speaker 1: those that want to compete, but it is also an
1:54
Speaker 1: opportunity for individuals and you know, mom's, dad's kids, everybody
1:59
Speaker 1: to you know, to come out, stretch their legs and
2:02
Speaker 1: be a part of a really neat event.
2:04
Speaker 3: Area.
2:04
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, and I'm glad you said that.
2:07
Speaker 3: You mentioned, you know, family, and that was our main
2:10
Speaker 3: objective when we began this in two thousand. It was
2:13
Speaker 3: you know, two or three reasons for that. We wanted
2:17
Speaker 3: to highlight the downtown by running through it. But we
2:20
Speaker 3: also wanted to make sure that we brought an event
2:23
Speaker 3: in that kept people healthy. It had something to do
2:26
Speaker 3: with fitness, but even more importantly, it was fun and
2:32
Speaker 3: family and friends.
2:33
Speaker 2: Could meet and be together.
2:35
Speaker 3: And we've been able to accomplish all of that, of course,
2:39
Speaker 3: in a huge part to the partnership we have with
2:42
Speaker 3: the Petunia Festival, because I believe we bring people to
2:46
Speaker 3: them and vice versa.
2:47
Speaker 1: Absolutely, absolutely, there's no doubt about it that the Reagan
2:50
Speaker 1: Run is an attraction. It is an attraction during the
2:53
Speaker 1: Petunia Festival. People come from not just our local area,
2:58
Speaker 1: but from out of the area to participate in this event,
3:02
Speaker 1: and when they do, they take an eye out for
3:05
Speaker 1: what else is going on, you know, absolutely, and just
3:09
Speaker 1: you know, really it is a win win for everybody involved.
3:14
Speaker 1: And Nancy is here to talk and we're going to
3:16
Speaker 1: expand on on the Reagan Run this year. Nuts and
3:19
Speaker 1: Bolts of the Reagan Run. To start things off, we
3:22
Speaker 1: talked about it. It's the twenty fifth annual Reagan five k.
3:25
Speaker 1: It is a three point one mile race. Walkers, as
3:28
Speaker 1: we talked about at the top of the programer, welcome.
3:31
Speaker 1: When's it going to take place again.
3:33
Speaker 3: That will be on Saturday, July fifth, and the main
3:36
Speaker 3: race starts at eight o'clock in the morning. Of course,
3:39
Speaker 3: up at the Ronald Reagan boyhood home. We do have
3:43
Speaker 3: the Kids Fun Run that's free for nine and under
3:47
Speaker 3: and that'll start at seven point thirty and they run
3:50
Speaker 3: six tenths of a mile, so and numbers are looking
3:54
Speaker 3: good for that one as well. Right now, we're well
3:57
Speaker 3: over seven hundred.
3:59
Speaker 2: That's great, I know.
4:01
Speaker 4: So this is pre registration seven hundred and preregistered not
4:05
Speaker 4: we're talking about still a little under two weeks that
4:09
Speaker 4: we still are registering. So by the time the Reagan
4:12
Speaker 4: Run steps off on July the fifth, I'm hoping that.
4:16
Speaker 1: We could be well, you know, Honor, I know that
4:18
Speaker 1: the record I think is over a thousand.
4:20
Speaker 3: If I'm not as with oh yeah, the record actually
4:23
Speaker 3: is sixteen hundred, almost seventeen hundred. That was a little
4:28
Speaker 3: too much for us, but we managed. We managed, but
4:33
Speaker 3: then we we kind of went down slowly and typically
4:37
Speaker 3: then before COVID we were stay at fourteen hundred around
4:41
Speaker 3: in that we're hoping this year to get to the
4:43
Speaker 3: twelve hundred mark. We slowly inched back up and that's
4:47
Speaker 3: just so exciting.
4:48
Speaker 2: And you know, Steve, people may be.
4:52
Speaker 3: Very excited this year because they don't have the wooded
4:56
Speaker 3: area and the big hills and that type of rain,
5:01
Speaker 3: so it has changed. We actually when we come into
5:04
Speaker 3: the finish line at Haymarket Square, we'll be coming in
5:07
Speaker 3: the opposite way. We'll be coming down Highland Avenue instead
5:12
Speaker 3: of going the other way, so that'll be interesting. So far,
5:18
Speaker 3: I've heard thumbs up from many many people. I just
5:22
Speaker 3: give anybody that participates in this for the last twenty years,
5:28
Speaker 3: I give them credit. I would absolutely hate our faces
5:33
Speaker 3: for this five k committee because I tried the wooded
5:37
Speaker 3: area once and I'm like, I don't know why people
5:39
Speaker 3: come back, but we're excited. So we're actually going to
5:45
Speaker 3: be on the I call it the bike path, other
5:48
Speaker 3: people it's the rail trail where you know the trains were,
5:54
Speaker 3: and so we will pick that up. We go underneath
5:57
Speaker 3: the bridges. So just a lot of different exciting, exciting
6:02
Speaker 3: things for us. And instead of going I should start
6:05
Speaker 3: from like the start line, we'll still.
6:07
Speaker 2: Go down Hinnepin Avenue.
6:09
Speaker 3: The runners will still get that wonderful uphill underneath the
6:13
Speaker 3: big flag at the fire Department. But instead of going
6:18
Speaker 3: all the way to River Road and taking a right
6:20
Speaker 3: and going across Glena Avenue, we're going to be taking
6:24
Speaker 3: a left on First Street and then we'll proceed on
6:28
Speaker 3: Pori Avenue. So we will not be on Galena Avenue
6:32
Speaker 3: this year, and from what I'm hearing from my courseman,
6:36
Speaker 3: James Lilyman, we probably won't be on Galena Avenue in.
6:41
Speaker 2: The future either.
6:42
Speaker 3: So yeah, so we'll we'll go to the cafeteria, turn
6:47
Speaker 3: to the left at Cafeteria Alley, go.
6:49
Speaker 2: Up that little alleyway by.
6:51
Speaker 3: Race Tires Service, take a right on Evert Palmyra Street,
6:56
Speaker 3: it's called so many different things, back to Peoria and
7:00
Speaker 3: then from there Lincoln Statue Drive. The runners will go
7:05
Speaker 3: to the left and then they'll end up going under
7:10
Speaker 3: the bridge at that point, and then they'll come back
7:13
Speaker 3: up at the YMCA, kind of go around that little
7:16
Speaker 3: goose neck we call it right, and then up to
7:19
Speaker 3: Galena Avenue bridge, where they'll run across the sidewalk, so
7:24
Speaker 3: we're on Galena, but in a different way, and then
7:28
Speaker 3: they'll take a left to go towards a hydro plant
7:31
Speaker 3: and then go back under the bridge, coming up over
7:36
Speaker 3: by Peoria Avenue and then catching the bike path the
7:41
Speaker 3: rest of the way to seventh Street. They'll go about
7:45
Speaker 3: maybe a half a mile unturned on Monroe, then go
7:50
Speaker 3: to sixth Street and then take a left on Highland
7:53
Speaker 3: and in they come for the end of the race.
7:56
Speaker 2: So it is different, but very very eight and challenging.
8:01
Speaker 1: It sounds to me like it's going to be very challenging,
8:03
Speaker 1: especially for the competitors that want to you know, top
8:06
Speaker 1: the honor list as far as you know, completing the
8:09
Speaker 1: Reagan five k and uh again, I think that's that
8:12
Speaker 1: lends to the Greens as we talked about at the
8:14
Speaker 1: outset and Nancy of you know, you know, interest in
8:17
Speaker 1: in running a different course. Yes, I think it perks
8:20
Speaker 1: a lot of interest in you know, makes people okay,
8:22
Speaker 1: you know it's a different course. I'm going to challenge
8:24
Speaker 1: it this year and let's see what's gonna.
8:25
Speaker 3: Absolutely, and it's gonna be much quicker race, is what
8:31
Speaker 3: we are anticipating, especially since they're going to be coming
8:35
Speaker 3: downhill yes to to finish, so uh so it'll be
8:40
Speaker 3: it'll be fun. Ultimately, our goal is that once that
8:43
Speaker 3: pedestrian bridge over the river is done, we will.
8:48
Speaker 2: Pick it up. We'll pick that, use.
8:51
Speaker 1: It, use it, use the walk bridge. Now use the
8:54
Speaker 1: walking bridge as part of the course.
8:56
Speaker 3: That yeah, James Lillyman, that was his goal when we start.
9:00
Speaker 1: Yes, So yeah, well we gotta gotta wait for that
9:03
Speaker 1: to happen.
9:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, we can take us six years.
9:06
Speaker 1: Yeah right yeah. So yeah, so again the course changes.
9:11
Speaker 1: There's there you go, Nancy Varga with the you know,
9:13
Speaker 1: change of the course again. Uh, that will be part
9:16
Speaker 1: of the challenge. But again, I think the challenge is
9:18
Speaker 1: being accepted by those that are preregistered. And again, as
9:22
Speaker 1: Nancy mentioned, you know too, it's it's a staple of
9:25
Speaker 1: the Dixon Petunia Festival. People come from all over to
9:29
Speaker 1: participate in the Reagan Run Challenge, but also take a
9:32
Speaker 1: look at what else is going on. And uh and
9:35
Speaker 1: that's I think what just brings it all together.
9:37
Speaker 4: Uh.
9:38
Speaker 1: And and it's you gotta be at the Reagan Boyhood Home.
9:41
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, and I encourage us every year if
9:45
Speaker 1: you want to see something you know that's magnificent. Uh,
9:49
Speaker 1: in the start of whatever. You know, this this challenge
9:52
Speaker 1: will be wherever it goes, you got to be at
9:54
Speaker 1: that Reagan Boyhood Home for that start because it's incredible. Yeah,
9:58
Speaker 1: it's incredible. Every that you get those many people gathered
10:02
Speaker 1: in that one location. Yeah, to take off into that
10:06
Speaker 1: five k challenge, it's just amazing. It's the Reagan five
10:08
Speaker 1: k Run walk. Nancy Barga is here to tell us
10:10
Speaker 1: about it here at WIX and Nancy already talked about
10:13
Speaker 1: the fun run. We talked about the course changes. We're
10:17
Speaker 1: going to talk a little bit about the history of
10:19
Speaker 1: the Reagan Run, and we're also going to lend credence
10:22
Speaker 1: to those bringing the Reagan Run to us. Nancy is
10:25
Speaker 1: going to be talking about that as well. We've got
10:28
Speaker 1: Reagan Run information with Nancy Barga today. She joins us
10:31
Speaker 1: on the eight fifteen talk line. The twenty twenty five
10:33
Speaker 1: Reagan Run is July the fifth, As Nancy pointed out,
10:37
Speaker 1: at the Reagan boyhood home that's the starting point. Haymarket
10:40
Speaker 1: Square will be the finish line of the annual Reagan Run.
10:44
Speaker 1: Nancy took you through the changes that are being made
10:46
Speaker 1: because of construction on the Rock River of the walking bridge.
10:49
Speaker 1: But again we talked about that. I think as maybe
10:52
Speaker 1: a plus in registration the new course being run. It
10:56
Speaker 1: is still a five k, so it's still a three
10:58
Speaker 1: point one mile course that hasn't shit changed. So we're
11:01
Speaker 1: still running five kilometers for the Reagan Run five K
11:04
Speaker 1: run walk. And it's Nancy pointed out for the entire
11:07
Speaker 1: family to enjoy the fun run for the kids even
11:10
Speaker 1: during the actual Reagan Run. Get out and stretch your legs.
11:13
Speaker 1: Support the Reagan Run again because it is the Reagan
11:18
Speaker 1: Run that distributes moneies after the moneies are received back
11:23
Speaker 1: to the community. And this is one of the again
11:28
Speaker 1: intriguing parts of the Reagan Run that you don't see
11:31
Speaker 1: five k's do. You don't see these competitions do that.
11:34
Speaker 1: You don't see it. You don't see moneies raised go
11:37
Speaker 1: right back to the community like the Reagan Run five
11:40
Speaker 1: K run walk does they disperse it to organizations across
11:44
Speaker 1: our Newell and Illinois area. You got that, listen, Nancy,
11:48
Speaker 1: I do?
11:48
Speaker 2: I do.
11:49
Speaker 3: Yeah. The Reagan five k is its own entity. We're
11:53
Speaker 3: a five oh one C three. We're blessed to have
11:57
Speaker 3: major sponsors of OSF Healthcare. We call it Telegraph, but
12:02
Speaker 3: Shaw Media, thank you, Auto Doc Advanced Ambulance. Those are
12:07
Speaker 3: our biggest sponsors. But without all of these sponsors, and
12:12
Speaker 3: I'm showing you right now all you know ghosts.
12:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, God bless them.
12:17
Speaker 3: Like we had Fresco on first was a new one today,
12:20
Speaker 3: Treehouse Foods new this year. And we actually have people
12:26
Speaker 3: coming to us saying I want to be a sponsor.
12:28
Speaker 2: So we're blessed in that way.
12:31
Speaker 3: And because of their donations, because of the folks that
12:35
Speaker 3: participate each year, we're able to give back to the
12:38
Speaker 3: four major benefactors, and that is the Dixon Athletic Boosters,
12:44
Speaker 3: Discover Dixon, Dixon Park District, and the YMCA Strong Kids Program.
12:51
Speaker 3: Now there's a few other entities in there that we give.
12:55
Speaker 2: To as well.
12:57
Speaker 3: We also Steve do six five one hundred dollars scholarships
13:02
Speaker 3: each year and this year I can't tell you we
13:06
Speaker 3: had a lot of people that applied for that, every
13:10
Speaker 3: single one of them good. It was a tough decision
13:13
Speaker 3: to make, but we did do that. So yeah, so
13:17
Speaker 3: a huge thank you, like I said to our sponsors.
13:20
Speaker 1: Absolutely again participating as again again the supporters of the
13:26
Speaker 1: Reagan Run, and again those organizations that Nancy mentioned a
13:30
Speaker 1: lot will be actually you know on this, I know
13:33
Speaker 1: the Dixon Family Why aids, you know, and and helps
13:36
Speaker 1: in the actual Reagan run five K they supported.
13:40
Speaker 3: Actually, I'm glad you brought that up. Those four major benefactors.
13:43
Speaker 3: The reason that they are our major ones is because
13:47
Speaker 3: they they're required to help either on the course as
13:51
Speaker 3: a volunteer. I have the Booster Club kids helping me
13:55
Speaker 3: to pack up trailers get water. We're going to do
13:58
Speaker 3: that actually on Wednesday, and so all these folks have volunteers.
14:03
Speaker 3: The Park District, of course, takes care of our course.
14:06
Speaker 3: They do pretty much anything we ask them. And also
14:09
Speaker 3: a huge thank you to the City Street Department as
14:14
Speaker 3: well as the police department. These folks help to man
14:16
Speaker 3: the major intersections. Tyler Vanier and his crew they make
14:21
Speaker 3: sure everything's safe so that when our participants are on
14:25
Speaker 3: the course that you know, God forbid that we don't
14:28
Speaker 3: want him twisting an ankle or anything. So it really
14:32
Speaker 3: it takes a team and one person can't do it
14:35
Speaker 3: by any means. So this committee has been great. We've
14:40
Speaker 3: pretty much stayed the same. Yes, yes, we have a
14:47
Speaker 3: board that has stayed the same, and that's the Jim Lillyman,
14:51
Speaker 3: Dave Blackburn, Chuck Jones, myself, Candy Stapleton, and then that
14:57
Speaker 3: that other guy that I know, John, Yeah, yeah, so
15:00
Speaker 3: where Isy But well, you know, when you're retired, you
15:04
Speaker 3: can sleep in. Others of us have to work, right Yeah,
15:12
Speaker 3: but anyway, so yeah, well you know, I really have
15:17
Speaker 3: to prep him a lot for these so that he
15:19
Speaker 3: uses the right language.
15:23
Speaker 2: So he's done pretty good over the year. Keep us laughing.
15:29
Speaker 1: Absolutely.
15:30
Speaker 3: I want to remind people too, because the fourth is
15:34
Speaker 3: on a Friday. Our race packet pick up, the early
15:38
Speaker 3: packet pickup will actually be at the y MCA on Thursday,
15:43
Speaker 3: July third, will open up at eleven am, but we
15:46
Speaker 3: will go on an hour later than we usually do.
15:48
Speaker 3: We'll go to six pm to try to accommodate people.
15:51
Speaker 3: That's just it's such a busy time, so people can
15:55
Speaker 3: come and register at that time. Just a reminder to
16:00
Speaker 3: everyone that we're at a twenty five dollars fee. T
16:03
Speaker 3: shirt will be based upon availability, and this goes all
16:07
Speaker 3: the way up.
16:08
Speaker 2: To July third.
16:09
Speaker 3: Okay, on race day then it's going to be the
16:11
Speaker 3: thirty five dollars Okay, all right.
16:14
Speaker 1: And yeah obviously you know again, don't you don't want
16:17
Speaker 1: to procrastinate and if you want to save a dollar
16:19
Speaker 1: here and there again and be a part of the
16:22
Speaker 1: Reagan Run five K. I would do it before, like
16:26
Speaker 1: Nancy mentioned July three, but a lot of people, you know,
16:28
Speaker 1: they make the final decision, they make the last minute decision.
16:31
Speaker 1: I'm going to do it.
16:31
Speaker 4: I'm going to do it.
16:32
Speaker 1: So well, you have to pay a little bit more
16:33
Speaker 1: on that Saturday to do it. But again you are
16:36
Speaker 1: offered an opportunity to participate with registration on Saturday. So
16:40
Speaker 1: that's a good thing, you know that you have that
16:42
Speaker 1: Saturday registration for those that you know have decided. Yeah,

17:05
Speaker 3: Registered dot com. That's our online registration, so either way. Also, people,

17:23
Speaker 3: lot of different ways.

17:30
Speaker 1: out and just put down the needed information and get
17:34
Speaker 1: it back to the YMC if you want to do
17:35
Speaker 1: it by the uform at the entry form that Nancy mentioned,
17:38

17:54
Speaker 1: race starts at eight am. Again with preregistration just before that.

18:02
Speaker 1: minutes beforehand.
18:03
Speaker 3: For race day registration. Well we say that, but you
18:07
