The Beverage Station will be located on the concrete path that runs along the Lakefront, south of the Chicago Yacht Club at Monroe Harbor.on Lakefront. Remember – this is the Chicago Yacht Club – not the Columbia Yacht Club (the big “ship”)…..

All materials will be at the Site when we arrive.

Timeline:

- Plan to be “On Site” at the Beverage Station by 6:30 a.m. - We will start pouring 5,000 cups of water and other hydration fluids upon arrival. - Race starts at 8:00 a.m. sharp - Last Participants pass Beverage Station by approximately 9:00 a.m. - Clean up discarded cups, etc. as soon as “pack” thins out….

Parking: If you are planning on driving, there is no parking at Monroe Harbor. The East Monroe Underground Parking lot would be the closest Park District lot. There will be free parking for all Run to Remember volunteers at the Waldron Parking Structure (south of Soldier Field). However, keep in mind that this lot is about 2 miles away from the Beverage Station. So, if you use this lot, allow for time to walk 2 miles to our location.

Post-race party: At Finish Line Area, Soldier Field, Gold Star Families Memorial and Park.

Post-Post-race party: TBA, but its Cinco de Mayo, I’m sure that we’ll be able to find someplace to drink.
