Organiser's Description
In the 1980's the Park Forest Running and Pancake Club held their annual progressive marathon by adding up four separate "races" with the Park Forest Scenic 10 to have a Marathon time.
In keeping with that tradition, we will be hosting a series of "races" at the Vollmer Trails, then adding those times to your finish time at the Flossmoor Hidden Gem Half Marathon.
Come to the Flossmoor Entrance of the Vollmer Trail and run a 3.275 mile race four times. We will be hosting on Every Tuesday and Thursday at 7:00 PM Between August 5th and August 25th. We will also have 2 makeup dates on September 2nd & 4th at 7 PM for anyone who needs it.
After the Hidden Gem, we will tabulate the results and award the top three finishers.
This is a free event. We ask that if you sign up, you make the commitment to complete the series.
