35th Annual Ridge Run in Chicago
35th Annual Ridge Run
The Beverly Area Planning Association, planners of the popular event, expect to welcome more than 3,500 athletes to the starting line on Monday, May 28. With start times at 8 a.m. for the 10K, 8:10 a.m. for the youth mile, and 9:30 a.m. for the 5K run/walk, there’s plenty of time to run or cheer on runners, watch the Memorial Day Parade, then relax at home with a barbecue.
The Ridge Run’s three races start and finish at Ridge Park, 96th and Longwood Drive, where families can also enjoy refreshments, get information from race sponsors, and keep track of race results, and where the youngsters can bring their “ailing” toys for a check up at the popular Little Company of Mary Hospital teddy bear clinic and compete in the tot trot.
