Explore a different side of Chicago during the Bank of America Chicago 13.1. This race is a newcomer to the city’s half marathon landscape.

Established in 2022, racers “get out of the Loop” during this run that takes participants through the neighborhoods of Chicago’s West Side.

This cloverleaf course begins and ends in Garfield Park, a neighborhood home to the Garfield Park Conservatory, one of the nation’s most extensive botanical conservatories.
Throughout the course, eight aid stations are available, offering medical support, porta potties, water, and energy drinks.
From the starting line near the Garfield Park Gold Dome Field House, runners begin their route traveling north to Humboldt Park, where they complete a two mile loop before circling back to Garfield Park for the second half of the race.
After mile 6, runners turn south to loop through Douglass Park, a 218-acre city park replete with ponds, gardens, and playgrounds for city dwellers to explore. At mile 10, runners make their way back to the finish line for a race day festival.
