Elvis I Alive 5K Chicago - Not So Local Race

A long time ago I was in Chicago for vacation and signed up for a race and I also signed up for the Fleet Feet Chicago mailing list.  I still get their emails and this one caught my eye because I'm a fan of Elvis.

It's not a local race.  Here's the info benefitting Girls On Thje Run.

About the Run
C'mon everybody, let's rock!
The 13th Annual Elvis Is Alive 5K is a non-competitive event and promises to be more fun than a honeymoon in Vegas. This Thursday evening race takes place on Chicago's lakefront and features an "all-Elvis" start corral and post-run show after the run, as well as Goose Island beer.
Race Charity
The Elvis Is Alive 5K benefits Girls On the Run, a non-profit prevention program that encourages preteen girls to develop self-respect and healthy lifestyles through running. Click here to learn more about Girls On the Run.

Party in the Park with Elvis
An all-star, all-Elvis line-up will provide participants and friends and family with an evening of entertainment of which the King would be proud. One (1) free Goose Island beer is available for each participant, age 21 and over (must present ID). Additional beer tickets will be available for purchase at the race. All proceeds benefit Girls On the Run Chicago.
