Rogers Park Running Club has been awarded 5 free entries to the Bank of America Chicago Shamrock Shuffle, 13.1 Half Marathon and Chicago Marathon as part of the Chicago Distance Series “Entries for Equity” program. This program was created to increase representation in Bank of America Chicago Distance Series events to reflect the diverse backgrounds and identities of Chicagoland area residents and recognize groups who are creating a positive community impact. RPRC has been asked to prioritize distributing these entries to individuals who represent diverse backgrounds and identities, who are first-time participants in Chicago Distance Series events, and who may not have the financial means to participate.
If you’re interested in being considered for one of these free entries, please answer the questions below to the best of your ability and in whatever way you are comfortable.
A committee made up of long-time club members, including the members who put the effort into applying for this grant, will review all responses and select the final participants.
