The Run Against Breast Cancer CHICAGO/EVANSTON is an event that you don't want to miss! This run is expected to sell out quickly, so make sure to secure your spot before it fills up. Once the waves are sold out, don't worry, you can still participate by signing up for the virtual run option.
By taking part in this run, you will not only be supporting a great cause but also be joining a community of runners who are standing together against cancer. You can choose to run a 5K, 10K, or a 21K Half Marathon. After completing the run, you will receive a special commemorative pin or ribbon to keep as a token of your participation.
A portion of the proceeds from the run, along with 100% of the fundraising, will be donated to the American Cancer Society, the oldest and largest cancer organization in the United States.
This run is limited to a small, private group of 15-20 participants per wave. Runners of all ages and paces, including walkers, are welcome to join. There is no need for any special equipment or setup, as our coordinators will be there to support you throughout the run.
Timing for this run is stress-free, with no timing chips. However, if you wish to keep track of your time, our coordinators can help you using bib numbers provided on race day. Just let our coordinator know, and they will guide you through a simple process of noting your start and stop time.
As part of the swag bag, you will receive a premium running shirt, which will be shipped to your registered address within the US. Additionally, after completing the run, you can email us to receive your finisher's medal.
Packet pickup is hassle-free, as all swag will be shipped directly to your address. Race bibs will be provided on race day. Your shirt will be delivered to you the week of your race.
For the latest updates on the race, you will receive a final update email the Wednesday before the race, which will include all the necessary details and course maps.
Last-minute registrations are accepted, but please note that your shirt may arrive after the run. Feel free to wear any appropriate shirt to run the race.
Wave times are available, and you can email us your desired wave time. Waves will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Late runners can join the run upon arrival, as our coordinators will be available until 3 hours after the first wave.
If you can't join the run in person, you have the option to participate in the virtual run. This unique virtual run offers the support of a coach who can be reached via text anytime. You can choose your own time and place for the run, and after completing it, you can submit your results to receive your medal.
If you're interested in sponsoring the event or promoting your business, we would be delighted to help you. And, if you want to make a difference, we also offer the opportunity to donate a registration for someone else to run who may not be able to afford it. They will also receive some cool running swag!
