Gibbons 5K - Chicago, Illinois - Obstacle & Mud Runs

The Gibbons 5K is a Obstacle & Mud Runs race in Chicago, Illinois consisting of a Urban Adventure Race.

Is it time for something new? Want to get off the sidewalk or ready for the kids to put down the controller for a bit? Try having some fun in the woods with your chosen team! Because you gotta start somewhere we've created the Tenderfoot Adventure Race-an event for beginners and families to mountain bike, trek, strategize, navigate, perform challenges, and paddle by following a map with marked checkpoints. Basically, it's an all-terrain scavenger hunt with a handsome reward...great prizes, muddy legs, a sweaty body, and proud smiles like you may not have seen in a while. Join us at the Greens in Willowsford at 9 am on September 18 for your first adventure race! (The course for families will differ slightly.) All teams will have 3 hours to find as many checkpoints as possible, and after you find that last checkpoint on the map, join us for delicious post-race food and the awards ceremony.
