I'm very excited and proud to announce that I was chosen to be part of the 2014 Fort2Base Ambassador team for the race this year!

It is a great running event that offers 2 options. You can do either 3 Nautical Miles (3.45 miles) or 10 Nautical Miles (11.5 miles). The course is pretty flat and fast with the exception of the famed "Hero Hill" which is right about at mile 11. It's a monster of a hill, but worth every step of the climb with great support/motivation provided by the Sailors at Great Lakes. The start line is at Fort Sheridan and the finish is at Naval Station Great Lakes. Check out the race site at www.fort2base.com and message me for a 10% discount code.

I will be running Fort2Base for my second time this year (the 3 NM)... did it in 2012 as my 2nd race ever and loved it! Well organized and very friendly and supporting of the "slower" runners like me! Beautiful scenery too! My goal is to run that ENTIRE hill! Maybe from training and racing my first tri this year it will be much easier!

Oh man, where were you with your 10% discount code a week ago when I was signing up for my summer races?! I opted for the other CARA race around that same time for a 10k because it was only $30.

Awesome, and glad you are able to make it. Hero Hill is an absolute butt kicker especially cause it is near the end of both courses. If you haven't done so already I will email you the promo code to save 10% off of the entry.

If it is not the same day as the other race you signed up for, then you should give it a go. We have a short course as well as a long course to choose from. I just emailed you with the promo code.

Hope you will join us this year!
