Working directly with Chicago Area Runners Association, with support from Gatorade Endurance, we’re joining together to strengthen our popular hydration stations along the Chicago Lakefront Trail to provide support to thousands of runners, a large sum of whom are training for the Bank of America Chicago Marathon.
Stations are open to all trail users as we all work together to support the running community. The equivalent of nearly 350,000 cups of fluid is provided each summer.
Stations provide compostable cups, and users are encouraged to self-carry a bottle or collapsible cup for station refill, to support sustainability efforts.
