To the victors ... beer at the post-race party. Cheers!

Thanks to everyone who participated in this year's Rock 'n Sole presented by BMO Harris Bank and starting and finishing on the Summerfest grounds. We had a great time and hope you did too.

Kids Read to Run is easily the cutest of our Rock 'n Sole races.

Thank you to sponsors Milwaukee Admirals, Master Z's, Marquette University and Saz's Hospitality Group. And thanks to Kids Run to Read co-chairs Marquette Golden Eagles Steve "Coach Wojo" Wojciechowski and his wife Lindsay.

It's a bottle-of-Aquafina-after-the-race kind of day. Or a carton of KempsCows chocolate milk.

We've passed the 2-hour mark, with plenty of medals still to award. Congratulations to all our finishers!

We're seeing plenty of smiles out on the course today, especially at the finish line. You rock!

Our post-race party until 11:30am on @summerfest grounds' south end has food, beer and great activities for all ages. Music by Brewtown Beat.

Go Team BMO Harris Bank! Additional support for Rock 'n Sole comes from sponsors Boston Store, Dick's Sporting Goods, MGIC, Eaton, Kornit Digital, Spot Hero + Milwaukee County Parks.

‪Our winners in the Rock 'n Sole quarter marathon are in: Will Farah, 40, of Milwaukee and Kelly Johnson, 23, of Waukesha. Great job!‬

We have winners in our 5K race: Brendon Paucek, 22, of Eau Claire and ‪Kenzie Schroeder, 24, of Milwaukee. Congratulations!

The refreshment crew is ready for our finishers. Thanks to Meijer and Catalano for providing finish line snacks and to Meijer for aid station water. Aquafina and Gatorade are provided by Pepsi, and all runners will receive a bottle of Aquafina water at the finish, as well as chocolate milk courtesy of Kemp's.

‪And the 5K race is now underway, too. Good luck, runners!‬

A big thanks to our presenting sponsor, BMO Harris Bank!

The Start Line Village inside the Summerfest grounds features restrooms, a water station, pre-race medical supplies and an information booth.

It's only Rock 'n Sole and we like it! Great to see so many runners out on the lakefront for this year's races. Very important to be prepared for today's heat and humidity. Listen to your body, slow down, and stay hydrated.

Good morning, runners! The Hoan is ready for you.
