New Year's Polar Bear Swim

No nudity, no wetsuits, no whining. It's the fifth annual New Year's Day Polar Bear Swim. Come to North Avenue Beach at noon and put all that holiday flab to good use: insulation.

New Year's Day 5K Fun Run & Walk

There's still time to register for the first 5K run of the new year. The race starts at 11:00 AM at Lincoln Park, and benefits the Lakeview Citizens Council. For more information, see the Chicago Special Events Management Website.
