Chiditarod V salutes all who helped make Chiditarod 2010 truly, totally, off the hook EPIC. This crazy race just gets more and more legendary. Thank you. Thank you... thank you for choosing to live adventurously, artistically, and with good humor... all while fighting a common foe: Hunger in Chicago. Prizes, times, and cart deposits will be handled in the next few days if not sooner. For now, let's see the media!
When you upload your awesome photos and videos to your sites of choice (tagging with chiditarod2010), please also add it to our Ning site so we can have a central place to visit when we need a Chiditarod pick me up.

Read all of this. You'll be happy you did.
The Chiditarod is probably, most likely, we assume, the largest mobile food drive in the universe. This year you must finish the race with at *least* 40 pounds of quality, non-perishable, preferrably high-protein food in your cart. This year all food and monentary donations go to The Chicago Anti-Hunger Federation. If you have friends who aren't racing or volunteering, ask them to participate by bringing food to the start or finish line. Times are tough; especially tough for those in real need. Chiditarod isn't just a wild, incredibly EPIC race to glory. You are doing good work. Please dig deep and help your fellow citizenry.

Hear ye, hear ye!!! Let the EPIC begin. Again.
Chiditarod (ʃai*dit'*ə*rɒd): n.) the annual Chicago-based phenomenon that combines elements of the Alaskan Iditarod with Chicago's finest brand of debaucherous social activism. One part food drive, one part pub-crawl, one part costumed race, all parts radtacular.
“RUNNING ROUGHSHOD OVER HUNGER SINCE 2006”
The *AWESOME* known as Chiditarod is now in its 5th year. On March 6th, 2010, Chicago's mushers, artists, pub-crawlers, enthusiastic leisurists, professional badasses, cartoon characters, activists, ninjas, saboteurs and of course, robots, will assemble yet again to perpetrate what is "nearly definitely the largest mobile food drive in the known world."
Epic mushers, veteran and new. We salute your bravery, ambition, utter disregard for the resonable, and HEART. The results of the 2009 Chiditarod are in. First and foremost, the food drive. The Chicago Anti-Hunger Federation is the recipient of the food drive this year. Thanks to your generosity and cunning, the 2009 Chiditarod raised 7,758 pounds of food for Chicago's hungry. That's almost 4 Tonnes!
7,758 pounds!

Thanks to the large majority of you who took your carts home with you after the event. We salute you. As for the few of you who figured you'd let someone else clean up your mess...
DO NOT SHOW UP WITH A CART IF YOU HAVE NOT REGISTERED. If you have registered, you may check in at 11 am.
Safety is our first, second, and third priority. You are responsible for keeping yourself and your team safe and in compliance with the law. That means obeying traffic signals and laws restricting public consumption of alcoholic beverages, staying on the sidewalk, and being respectful and responsive to pedestrians, motorists, and especially members of the Chicago Police Dept., should you have the occasion to interact with them.
You must be at least 21 to participate. Bars will be carding at the door. Form a line, and be patient. Life is a gift, so take those moments in line to experience, with ecstatic wonder, that burning feeling in your lungs, that blister on your toe, those rivulets of rain mixed with snot running from your nose.
This is a leave-no-trace event. Make plans to take your cart HOME (not down the street) with you after the race.
Hear ye, hear ye!!! Let the EPIC begin.
Get a year's portion of GLORY in a single afternoon. For serious.
