Great course. I know people complained about the location of the number pickup. Unless you live in Dumbo, the pickup location is pretty out of the way. This is the first run I know about where the race organizers let you send a "proxy" to pickup your number

This is my third time running the Chicago Marathon, the feeling of running this race gets better every time! Love everything about it. Best organized race, best volunteers, and best spectators. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to have the time of their life!!

We had a nice time. There is nothing big and asplashya� about this event. You show up and do your thing. Staff along the run were super friendly and pointed out tripping hazards and flagged traffic. Their cheering us on was appreciated. The long sleeve shirts are nice.
