Summer 5K Opportunities
Friday, July 8 2016 - Summer Running (7 AM)Hey Sentinels,
As we prepare to resume summer running meetings on Monday, July 11th, we wanted to let you know about some opportunities for you to run in a 5K over the remainder of the summer. It's not mandatory, but it would be a great way for you to test your fitness during/after summer running is done.
Athletes should note that Tuesday, August 9th is the ABSOLUTE last day they can run in a 5K before practice begins.
Beginning with the first day of practice on Wednesday, August 10, an athlete may not compete in any competition that is not sanctioned by the IHSA.
Here are two that have come along our way:
1. The Glo Run - Chicago, near Field Museum, Saturday, July 16, 2016:
*50% off registration if you register by Wednesday, July 13!*
This is a night run... check out their website, it pretty much shows exactly what you'll get!
2. Inerman Angels Brunch 5K - Chicago, Montrose Harbor, Saturday, July 23, 2016:
From their website:
What is the Imerman Angels Brunch Run 5K and Walk?
This is Not Your Ordinary 5K! The Brunch Run is a 5K with a reward worth running (or walking) for. Because when you reach the finish line, you will be treated to an amazing brunch from Chicago's award-winning Blue Plate Catering. And that's not all - every participant receives:
-
On-Course Gourmet Surprises!
-
Iced Coffee Station
-
Lifestyle T-Shirt (gender specific)
-
Signature Brunch
Yum!
We'll update with more 5K opportunities. If you find one and want to share it with your teammates, let us know and we'll put it up for your teammates!!
