🐐 The goat has waited long enough.
Bucktown 5K pricing goes up July 19, and while the goat isn't saying you have to register now... the look it's giving says otherwise.
Join us October 4 for a flat, fast 5K through one of Chicago's most iconic neighborhoods, earn this year's goat-worthy swag, celebrate at the neighborhood block party, and be part of a Bucktown tradition that's been bringing runners together for 27 years.
The goat knows a good deal when it sees one. Don't make it watch you pay more.
Register before prices increase at bucktown5k.com.
