Fancy Prance

September 13th - 20th, 2024

Thank you to everyone who participated and to our generous donors at Fleet Feet and the Chicago White Sox!  Winners will have their prizes mailed shortly.

If you didn't have a chance to support Esther's inpatient friends this year, we will be back next year!  So get ready to grab your sneakers and join in for a great cause.

For those new to the Fancy Prance, Esther's Friends' Fancy Prance is a virtual 5K run and walk inspired by Esther's love of being fancy and having fun - so wear something fancy and fun and remember Esther, while making a difference in the lives of children facing long-term hospitalizations! 

While we have categories for the entire family, the 5K distance is especially meaningful as that is about the distance from Esther's house to Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago, where Esther met with her specialists and stayed during her hospitalizations.

Other distances include a 1-Mile Walk and a Kid Dash!  Everyone, no matter how old or young, can get in on the fun - whether you choose to run with a necklace, glowstick, tutu, superhero cape, headband, nail polish - whatever is that one little extra thing that makes you smile and feel happy!

We hope you will go for a run for Esther with Esther's Friends!
