Bank of America Chicago Marathon Course Map

The Bank of America Chicago Marathon is a stunning city marathon with plenty of landmarks to see, including the world-famous Sears Tower, which seems visible at virtually every turn. The race starts and finishes in Grant Park and passes Lake Michigan as well as taking in many of Chicago’s colourful neighborhoods, including the Chinatown, Pilsen, Greektown and Little Italy.

It’s a course with the potential for running a personal best, being largely flat and you’ll also be helped along the way by the estimated 1.5 million spectators and plentiful musicians who line the course and help make it the stunning spectacle it is.
