Some important notes for our Race:

Races will have on-course support will water and Gatorade at all aid-stations.
Hydration will be served in open cups (all volunteers will use rubber gloves when handling cups). If you have health concerns with open cups, please plan to bring your own hydration.
There are two road crossings. Police will be present to direct vehicle traffic. Please be alert and use caution when crossing roadways.
The course will be well marked with chalk and signage. However, all athletes are responsible to know your course beforehand.
All three races will use the same common start/finish located near the pavilion in the Millennium Park Meadows.
Each event will have a mass start. Current race times are as follows:

7:55a – Half Marathon
8:15a – 10K & 5K
Refreshments will be available after the race.
On site awards will be presented in the pavilion, near the finish line, starting approximately at 9:15a. Time subject to change, pending the availability of full results. We will have award presentations for all age groups for the 5k. Overall and Masters presentations will happen for 10k and half marathon. Age group winners in those races can pick up their award at the award table after the presentation.
All of our courses follow paved trails that flow through open park spaces, wooded ares, between lakes, and long rivers. The scenery is beautiful and engaging.
Our courses are mostly flat, with a handful of gentle rollers that keep it interesting.
