Link: April 1 & 2, 2011 – Chicago, IL A good chance to run with some interesting folks. Saturday, April 2, 2011 • Naked Run and Raffle When: 7 am (starting time) Where: Fleet Feet Sports, Piper’s Alley (312.587.3338) Distance: up to 5 miles Event Details: Join Christopher, Scott Jurek, John Durant, Lee Saxby and Eric Orton for a run on Lakeshore Drive, followed by a bagel breakfast, Q&A session, booksigning, and prize raffle back at the store.
I just found out about this yesterday. I almost ran with Chris about a year and a half ago and can attest to the fact that he's an interesting guy to hang out with. And the rest of the guest list is stellar. Only one problem. I think it's going to be really tough for me to actually make it there. My wife works Saturdays, so finding a sitter and also transportation are going to be a little tricky for me. But I'm going to see if there is a way I can make this work.
Good looking out Matt! I will definately do my best to wake up early and head out to meet these guys and enjoy a run with them. If I do get out there, I'll definately post about it. Hopefuly we can get some of our chapter members out there as well.
Looks like the Chicago event has been canceled. http://www.chrismcdougall.com/blog/2011/03/chicago-event-cancelled/
