Shakeout Run Before 13.1


RSVP here:

Join Family Style RC and Read & Run Chicago for shakeout run before the Bank of America Chicago 13.1!

Join Family Style RC and Read & Run Chicago at Scratch Goods (127 N Peoria) on Saturday, June 6 at 9:00 AM for a special shakeout run before the Bank of America Chicago `13.1!

Our three mile shakeout route to Union Park in the West Loop is a window into Chicago's West Side.

Some history: West Side parks along the 13.1 route, Humboldt Park, Garfield Park, and Douglas Park, were all products of famed landscape architect Jens Jensen, who first used Union Park as a test zone for the signature prairie style you'll see in the forementioned parks he later designed.

After the route, stick around for 20% off any Scratch Goods products, complimentary products courtesy of Propel, Chargel, Nuun, and Brami, plus book sales and more. We'll giving a special send off to the Family Style RC and Read & Run Chicago Chicago Distance Series Entries from Equity teams and wishing luck to all runners.

Here's the schedule:

  • 9:00 AM - Meet at Scratch Goods

  • 9:15 AM - Kick off

  • 9:20 AM - Split into pace groups and start the run

  • 10:00 AM -10:45 AM - Post-shakeout celebration

Bring your family, friends, coworkers - whoever! Whether you'll be racing the Bank of America Chicago 13.1 or simply looking for a fun way to get some miles in community, you are welcome!

BONUS:

  • Any runners who purchase products from Scratch Goods at our shakeout will be entered into a giveaway for a mask bar table for two at a future date ($180 value)!
