See the 2011 Race Village diagram in the Runners Guide.
Even though you’ve seen a lot of great scenery along the Fox River during your race, nothing
will look as good as the finish line across the Illinois Street Bridge! Take it all in as you are
about to accomplish something very special that you have worked hard to achieve.
After crossing the finish line and timing mat, volunteers will be there to direct you to the Race
Village where you will get your Finishers Medal, water etc. Medical personnel will be at the
finish line to help you if needed and the Main Medical tent is at the entrance to the Race
Village.
We have great finishers medals for you! You earned them and congratulations! You will
need to have a valid bib and returnable timing chip to receive your medal.
If you’ve officially finished a Fox Valley Marathon race 2 or more years in a row, any distance,
any year you’re an Endurance Award Winner. After you finish and get your 2011 race medal
be sure to stop by the Endurance Award table at the race village to get your 2 year medal.
Also at the finish line will be our Official Photographers, Action Sports Images. In addition to
taking photos of you crossing the finish line you can have a posed photo taken with your
medal!
Once you are in the Race Village proceed to the Food Tent for some much needed recovery
food. Only registered runners with race bibs are allowed in the food tent.
As you exit the food tent there will be complimentary post‐race massages. Porta‐Johns are
also in the Village as well as booths from our Sponsors, Charity Partners and Host
Communities. This is an excellent location re‐unite with family and friends after the race.
Post Race Party
You’ve trained for months to finally cross the finish line and now it’s time to celebrate!
Join your fellow runners, friends & family and toast your huge accomplishment at the official
Fox Valley Marathon Races Post Race Party at Bistro One West at 1 Illinois Street. It's convenient to the finish line
with a beautiful view of the Fox River and finishing runners with live music and more!
