    Join Team LYDIA and Run for Kids!

    When you join Team LYDIA, you can reach your personal fitness goals while standing up for children who need your support through your pledges and donations to LYDIA. Join us by participating in an area race of your choice (to find an area race visit the CARA website or the RAM Racing site). 

    Sign-up with a friend, family member or co-worker since it’s always easier to stay motivated when training with a buddy!

    3 SIMPLE STEPS:

    1. First, register for the race of your choice on the race website. Our Chicago Half Marathon team discount code is: CHRLYD12 and our 5K discount code is: CHRLYD5K (both codes are case sensitive). Our Hot Chocolate 15/5K code is: HC12LYDIA.
    2. Then, sign-up for Team LYDIA and create your own fundraising page (it's free).
    3. Finally, participate in the race to help change lives of kids!

                                         
         



    "I love to run, but training for and running the Chicago Half Marathon with Team LYDIA was a special experience. I trained and ran with purpose, knowing that my rising early and hitting the pavement would make a real difference in people's lives. Running with Team LYDIA wonderfully reminded me that there are people in need, and that my putting one foot in front of the other can be part of meeting some of those needs."
