Description
The self-timed 20 mile run is a great opportunity to prepare for the Chicago Marathon. This run is designed to help runners build endurance and strength for the marathon by simulating the distance and atmosphere of the race. As the name suggests, the run covers a distance of 20 miles and will feature well-marked course with aid stations along the way to provide runners with hydration and support.
It's a great chance to practice fueling strategies, hydration, and gear choices before the big day. With a supportive and encouraging atmosphere, this race will help runners build confidence and provide an opportunity to bond with fellow runners who are also preparing for the Chicago Marathon.
GUs sponsored by Xtra Mile Running! We'll host a celebration with refreshments at the finish line!
Free and easy parking near Picnic Grove 27.
