The Soldier Field 10 Miler will be held on Saturday, May 28th and is a chance to “finish on the 50”. The race ends on the 50 yard line of Soldier Field and I don’t know about you but this race is most likely going to be my only shot at doing anything on the 50 yard line of Soldier Field, given the fact that my hand eye coordination is far too lacking to land a spot with the Bears (although from what I’ve seen from Jay Cutler, the Bears might actually have room for me. But I digress).
Word on the street is that this race sells out early so I signed up today! Chicago’s running community is amazing and growing every year. I, for one, love that races sell out- that means that even in these frigid temps, people are sweating it out on the pavement or on their treadmills, gearing up for warmer weather and running season. Powerful stuff, that community.
Can’t wait to “finish at the 50”!
