This was an easy course, and like most big cities, filled with fast runners. We were in town for a conference, and a group of us decided to participate. There was another Chicago Bears themed run the same day, but it didn’t seem to distract from this event. I would definitely run it again.

I signed up for this race for two reasons: it fit perfectly with my program and I wanted to enjoy the festive race atmosphere. I was going to run it alone until the Supreme Court ruling on Friday, June 26, which prompted a lot of my friends to sign up as well. Although there was a surprising lack of big announcements during the race itself, I had a great time. The course takes place on the park paths of Chicago’s Lincoln Park, which meant that it was still open to the public. Its 8 AM start time on a beautiful day meant that we had to be cognizant of walkers and cyclists on the path. However, with two aid stations, friendly volunteers and a festive post-race party that included cheerleaders and the Windy City Cowboys, we all had a great time. In my case, I had literally my best time (at the 10k distance). As the event benefits the Chicago LGBT community, the swag colorful but not over the top – the race T-shirt was green with the race’s rainbow insignia.
