City of Evanston

We encourage all runners, walkers, bikers and families to get out, enjoy the weather and register for some of Evanston’s exciting races!

Get moving this summer with the 2013 "Let's Move" race series!

As part of an effort to get Evanston residents out and moving this summer and fall, the City of Evanston is sponsoring the second annual Evanston Let’s Move Race Series. In conjunction with the YWCA, Northwestern University Black Alumni Association, McGaw YMCA, Northwestern University Athletics Department, Runners Club of Evanston, Evanston Bike Club and the Chicago Athlete Magazine, we hope to unite the running, walking and biking communities of Evanston.

With your help, we’d like to make Evanston a premier race destination where people can enjoy great courses, nice weather, beautiful North Shore scenery and good people. Through the race series, we also hope to promote and build a community of healthy individuals committed to wellness.
