    Raceway Woods houses what used to be a racetrack in Carpentersville, Illinois, about a 45-minute drive west of Chicago. No longer a racetrack but a forest preserve, the area still has a 3.17-mile track that now hosts local walkers, bikers and runners. In its third year, the Raceway 5k attracted almost 200 runners ready to tackle the many turns and hills of the once famous track. The first mile is mostly downhill, with the biggest hill cropping up right in the middle. The last mile is mercifully flat. However, its mid-August date all but guarantees a warm, muggy day. If you like running through forest but have weak ankles and can’t handle trail runs, this is an excellent substitute.
