A former hurdler before undergoing spine surgery, Cat and her dog Sunny have been running long distance for the past two and a half years using the sport as a path for collective connection. After moving to Chicago five years ago, Read & Run Chicago was Cat’s first social space during COVID and has since become a core part of her life and community. Through Read & Run Chicago, she is committed to making running a more pace diverse, geopolitically aware, and civically active space—one where movement, learning, and community-building come together to create a more connected and just city. What to ask Cat about: Urban planning. “Ask why urban planning is so, so cool to study and why people who study it are usually kinda cool!” she says. Which Winter 2026 event is Cat most excited for? The Book Club Run of Three Girls From Bronzeville. “Bronzville is dope,” she writes. “I want people to know how cool it is, but I almost want to keep it a hidden gem (like it’s mine to claim, haha!).

runner, freelance writer, former English teacher, and former study abroad director from Indianapolis who lived, worked, or studied in Argentina, Spain, and Australia before settling in Chicago. When she’s not reading and running, she enjoys journaling, spending time outdoors, jumping into Lake Michigan, engaging in small talk with strangers, and eating delicious things. After three years living in Chicago, Allison still struggled to feel a sense of belonging in the city. Reflecting on where she had felt a connection in the past, she realized it was always where she’d learned the stories of the place and its people (typically through books) and spent time exploring (whether running, walking, or biking). Then, after being fascinated by the story of The Battle of Lincoln Park, she set off with her cousin in the famed Chicago neighborhood–book in hand and sneakers on her feet–to trace the book’s story of the area’s 20th century transformation. It was then that the idea for Read & Run Chicago was born. For Allison, Read & Run Chicago has been, among many wonderful things, an opportunity to learn about others, validate lived experiences, acknowledge difficult history, and center the stories of everyday Chicagoans–all while creating a welcoming and wholesome community she so wished existed when she moved to Chicago. Today, Read & Run Chicago is managed under the parent organization owned by Allison, Read & Run Tours, which also manages city chapters and Read & Run on the Road, a program of independently-organized pop-up events. https://www.readandrunchicago.com/faqs daily 0.75 2025-12-05
