The Chicago Half Marathon or Chicago Half Marathon & 5K is an annual half marathon and 5k run occurring in September on the South Side of Chicago. The race takes place on a largely out-and-back course along Lake Shore Drive with views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline.
The race is regarded as a premier half marathon event, with Runner's World naming it as one of the top 10 half marathons in the United States.[1] Susan Nicholl is the race director and founder of the event.[2] With 20,000 registrants and 13,537 finishers in 2009,[3] the race bills itself as the fifth largest half marathon in the United States and the 21st largest road running event in the country.[4]
According to the Chicago Sun-Times, this race is known as "The People's Race".[5]
