Proud to Run 2019 marks the 38th year of Frontrunners/Frontwalkers Chicago supporting local LGBTQ+ non-profits through the presentation of a 5K run/walk and a 10K run. This year we introduce the Rainbow Half Marathon as an additional distance option.
Proud to Run (PTR) has been a vital part of Chicagos Pride festivities since 1982 and is certified by both USA Track and Field (USATF) and the Chicago Area Runners Association (CARA). Proud to Run is staffed entirely by volunteers and donates 100% of its net revenues to mission-driven LGBTQ non-profits across Chicago.
Over the past 36 years, PTR has raised over $600,000 for its beneficiaries. In 2018, PTR brought together 2,000 runners, 200+ volunteers, and hundreds of friends, families, and community partners to raise $40,000 for our local community beneficiaries.
