**THE 2022 USOLE 4 MILE CLASSIC**
The Universal Sole Four Mile classic is back (May 19th, 2022)! Chicago's only four mile race will have a familiar look for 2022. We are headed back to our original location, Montrose Harbor! That's right, we are bringing this USOLE staple race back to the city and we couldn't be more excited. We invite you all to join us as we kick off the summer season of racing!
Race Beneficiary: Chicago Run -- Chicago Run is a nonprofit organization that provides young people from Pre-K through high school with inclusive running and physical activity programs. They empower young people with equitable access to physical activity and use running as a catalyst to transform lives. Through the power of sport, they build resilience to stress and trauma and develop social and emotional skills. Programming is primarily focused in under-resourced communities with limited access to physical activity and play.
