About the Course

Our course is one of the most scenic in the entire Midwest.  Energetic bagpipe music starts you and welcomes you to the finish line.  The route heads North from beautiful Pottawatomie Park, along the historic Fox River on the bike bath.  It’s Challenging!  Water stations and guides are stationed along the way. 

 

What's With All Those Penguins?

Wondering about all those penguins? Mark loves penguins and always has. Logically, this lovable guy became the mascot of the race, ever changing with the times.

   
 

Ode to Runners

by Frank A. Yacko, R.N.

We few, we happy few, we band of runners

For you today that tires your muscles with me

Shall be my brother, be he ne'er so vile

This day shall gentle be your condition

And athletes in Chicago now abed

Shall think themselves accursed they were not here

And hold their beings cheap whiles any speaks

That ran with us upon Mark McCormick's day.
