Map: See the Chicago Marathon course route from start to finish
The Bank of America Chicago Marathon steps off this weekend in and all around Chicago.
More than 50,000 participants are expected to flood city streets on Oct. 13 for the annual race considered one of the largest in the world.
But where will runners travel?
The race both starts and finishes in Grant Park, but it will extend past just the downtown area to run through 29 neighborhoods and down some of Chicago’s most iconic streets.
The 26.2-mile trek will bring runners across six of the Chicago River’s bridges, stretching as north as Sheridan Road to as south as 35th Street.
Supporters are also set to be scattered across the marathon course at various watch points.
