So lace up your running shoes, and join our real estate agents at these upcoming races, walks, and runs in Chicagoland.

  • St. Monica Summerfest 5K Run/Walk - 7100 W Carmen Ave, Chicago, IL 60656
    St. Monica Summerfest returns on August 24 this year, and it brings a chance to participate in the annual Summerfest & 5K Run/Walk.

Participants receive a commemorative race shirt and other assorted goodies, including a beverage voucher. Proceeds from Summerfest benefit St. Monica Academy.

  • Fort2Base 10NM, 3NM, and 1-Mile Fun Run - 3155 Blackhawk Dr, Fort Sheridan, IL 60037
    Now in its 13th year, Fort2Base is a monumental race that offers something for runners of all fitness levels. This year's event takes place on August 25 and includes three races. The 10-nautical-mile race begins at 7 am at the historic Fort Sheridan military base in the community of Fort Sheridan and follows the McClory Bike Path to North Chicago's Foss Park.
