2022 Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon:
Thursday April 28-Saturday, April 30, 2022
"From the friendly Midwest spirit, to the flat course, to the photo finish inside Memorial Stadium, this is a race not to be missed."
The ALS Association Greater Chicago Chapter has an exciting opportunity to come aboard as an official charity partner with the Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon. We are excited to continue to grow our endurance program and offer more options to our charity runners who are looking for a different race or another distance than the full marathon. The Illinois Marathon has several distances, including a 1 Mile, 5k, 10k, 1/2 marathon, and even a relay, and they all take place from April 28-30, 2022.
Please note: The 26.2-mile marathon event will not be held this year.
Participants can sign up, select your charity, and fundraise via the Illinois Marathon's website. All participants running for the ALS Association Greater Chicago Chapter will receive a Run to Defeat ALS race shirt to wear proudly during your training and race!
