The 24th Proud To Run and its related fundraisers and celebrations are set in stone and ready to rock. The Proud To Run is an organization committed to the sports of running and walking through their annual 10K and 5K race and 2-mile fun walk. Every year since 1982 the Proud To Run has been held in Lincoln Park as part of Chicago's Lesbian and Gay Pride Weekend festivities. This year's event is Saturday, June 25, at Montrose Harbor. Wilson Cruz, the star from My So Called Life and numerous other shows, will be a special emcee.
The Proud to Run 2005 will be raising funds in support of its two beneficiaries, Gerber/Hart Library and Pride Youth.
