Read & Run Chicago Programs Manager Fernanda Wetzel is more than a great addition to the Chicago running community: she's also a talented baker and as she's originally from Ecuador, a proud Latina. Join her for the perfect combination to celebrate Latinx Heritage Month: a 6-mile fun run between Pilsen and Little Village to two Latinx-owned bakeries. On this fun run in partnership with Latinas Run, you'll hear about Panaderia Nuevo Leon and El Nopal, as well as sample treats from both.

Please note, the samples provided will contain gluten. We are not able to accomodate any dietary restrictions.
