Most of the 250 members of this running club—the Chicago chapter of an organization with 65 groups in the U.S. and 30 overseas—are LGBTQ, but straight allies are also welcome. They get together twice weekly for a one– to two-mile walk or a three– to five-mile run. The group also has a full calendar of social events, like anniversary picnics, a volunteer-run water station at the Chicago Marathon and a Labor Day get-together with other Midwest chapters. Meet at the totem pole at Addison Street and the lakefront path (Saturdays 9am and Tuesdays 6:30pm). frfwchicago.org
