Get Your Rear In Gear 5K race

Rain, sun, wind, RUN! The Colon Cancer Coalition brought its 5K fundraising race, Get Your Rear In Gear, to Chicago's Lincoln Park on April 25, attracting more than 500 participants. I don't think I ran a full 5K that morning, but I did dash through the outfield of a softball game elsewhere in the park to get some of these shots.

The kids' race came first...


Hard wind, hard-working volunteers.




This is why some of them ran...


(Watch out for crumbling pavement)




...and this is why others ran.
