Fleet Feet Sports

At Fleet Feet Sports, we know how tough it is to get out there and run with the temperatures in the teens.

Think you have what it takes to motivate others? Help us launch our Women's Runs/Walks in Elmhurst. We’re looking for a few women to captain the effort. You'll lead the weekly run/walk, and in exchange for your commitment, well outfit you from head to toe.

As the program grows, you'll gain friends, get/stay in shape, and perhaps pick up a few more incentives along the way.

For more information, please email us at info@FleetFeetChicago.com, or contact Margaret Buehler mbuehler@fleetfeetchicago.com or 630-559-3338.
