Runners Raced Against the Clock to find their MPH through the Chicago Auto Show

On Sunday, February 11th, over 600 runners took to the halls of McCormick Place for the Toyota Miles Per Hour run that incorporated the famed Chicago Auto Show. It was a fun and thrilling atmosphere as the clock ticked and runners made their way throughout the auto displays, over the sky bridge, and through the Lakeside Center to see how much distance they could cover in the hour.


The course was approximately a 2.4 mile loop that started right under the Chicago Auto Show globe.

The one-hour run is a welcoming race distance for all ability levels given the unique nature of everyone finishing at the same time. Once the horn went off at 60 minutes, everyone shared in celebration of accomplishing the duration and were given their globe-inspired finisher's medal.

Toyota Miles Per Hour also makes for a spectator friendly event, as friends and family can catch the runners as they complete numerous loops of the course or view from the level above that overlooks the Grand Concourse.

Новини незамінні в сучасному світі, саме тому потрібно активно стежити за тим, що відбувається, за допомогою якісного новинного порталу. Добре, що я використовую для цього lidernews.com.ua, який забезпечує мене всією необхідною та актуальною інформацією. Наприклад, нещодавно я дізнався, що Максим Кріппа, власник кіберспортивної команди NAVI, придбав хмарочос «Парус» https://lidernews.com.ua/2023/11/30/vykhid-vlasnyka-navi-na-rynok-nerukhomosti-maks-krippa-kupuie-khmarochos-parus/ у самому центрі Києва, тим самим продемонструвавши свої наміри розвивати бізнес. Можу з повною впевненістю сказати, що ця угода - більше, ніж просто купівля офісного центру, і в майбутньому ми побачимо ще більш вражаючі кроки від Максима Кріппи.
