CHICAGO MARATHON RUNNERS

If you haven’t yet heard of On Your Mark Coaching and Training, you probably will soon. The gym is made up of an incredible group of trainers who push their clients to the limit and offer an array of unique classes. From F-Train to Power Ball Pilates, it’s hard not to walk out feeling like you’ve just had an amazing workout. One of their specialties is an intense running class which I’m sure many of this weekend’s Chicago marathon runners may have taken once or twice.

Whether you are a marathon runner, or simply jog a few miles per week, it’s always important to keep safety in mind when you head out for your run. That’s why Emily Hutchins, co-owner of On Your Mark, decided to unveil her unique line of identification tags at this weekend’s Chicago Marathon Health & Fitness Expo.

Head over to booth 337, where the team will create an identification tag you can easily slip onto one of your shoelaces. The tags are only $20 to engrave one side ($25 for both sides) and contain your name, emergency contact information and any other important health information someone might need to know (exp: blood type, health conditions, etc.). Hopefully you will never be in the situation where it’s needed but just in case it’s important to have.

Good luck to all of the participants in this year’s Chicago’s Marathon! I will be out there cheering you on (especially my favorite marathoner, Tami Fitzgerald!).
