Frequently Asked Questions

"But I'm a walker, not a runner. Can I still join the 'Sole Survivors'?"

Of course you can! In fact we encourage anybody that is willing to put on a pair of shoes and put in some miles to join us! It doesn't matter if you run, walk, crawl, etc. All are welcome!


"I'd like to join but I already belong to a running club. Can I still join?"

We don't mind. Who says you can't belong to both? We probably aren't as competitive as most running clubs, in fact we don't even have a set race schedule or club awards, so you can fuel your competitive fire with your other club and feel free to hook up with us when you can! And don't forget that our 'Sole Survivors' club dues always go to a good cause!


"Sounds like fun but I'm not from Northwest Illinois. What do I do?"

Don't panic! Go ahead and join anyway! Your dues will go to a worthy cause of your choice so take a pic of you in your 'Sole Survivor' shirt at a race and send it to us. Maybe you can begin a 'Sole Survivors' group in your area!
