The 14th Running of the Chicago Half Marathon takes place on Sunday, September 12, 2010. The Chicago Half has sold-out the past fouryears, with 20,000 registrants in 2009. The Chicago Half is the fifth largest half-marathon in the U.S., and overall, the 21st largest running event in America.

The start and finish line of the Half Marathon and 5K will be in Jackson Park, just south of the Museum of Science and Industry at the intersection of Hayes & Richards.

The Chicago Half Marathon gives you the chance to run on Lake Shore Drive! This scenic 13.1 mile course will start and finish in Jackson Park and showcase the south lakefront and Jackson Park Golf Course. The Lake Shore Drive stretch offers beautiful views of the great Chicago Skyline.
