WELCOME TO THE VIRTUAL USOLE BURGERS & BEER DISTANCE CHALLENGE (13.1 or 26.2 miles)...Due to COVID-19, many fun runs and races have been canceled or postponed to a later date. This includes our own USOLE Burgers and Beer Race that we do each July. We miss meeting up and running with everyone, so we are going to a virtual run where we invite everyone to be part of the USOLE Virtual Burgers & Beer 13.1 or 26.2 Mile Distance Challenge and complete solo (w/ Social Distancing guidelines adhered to) by July 31st, 2020. All participants registered and complete the distance challenge (virtually) will receive a custom B&B Distance Challenge Graphic Decal and a Virtual USOLE B&B Distance Challenge Tech T-shirt! Proceeds from this event will go to support My Block, My Hood, My City and all the great work they do in Chicago for underprivileged youth!

Virtual Race Beneficiary: My Block, My Hood, My City --  My Block, My Hood, My City provides underprivileged youth with an awareness of the world and opportunities beyond their neighborhood.  We take students on explorations focused on STEM, Arts & Culture, Citizenry & Volunteerism, Health, Community Development, Culinary Arts, and Entrepreneurism.
