10 OCT 2010: CHICAGO MARATHON, USA
CHICAGO ENTRIES ARE NOW CLOSED
Chicago is now one of the biggest marathons in the World and has developed a reputation as also being one of the best marathon experiences anywhere despite its colossal size - at around 40,000 runners.
With a start and finish in the wide spaces of Grant Park on the shores of Lake Michigan - this is where President Obama made his first speech after being elected as President - the logisitics are easy.
The route takes in much of the shoreline and the downtown areas with their massive and distinctive skyscrapers such as the Sears Building on the Magnificent Mile.
We have a limited number of guaranteed entry places which are available with a travel package only.
