Des Plaines River Trail Races
Chicago Fall Classic Half Marathon, 10K & Hot Cider Hustle 5K
The Chicago Fall Classic is a fall race day on Chicago’s lakefront, featuring a half marathon, a 10K run/walk, and the Hot Cider Hustle 5K run/walk. Virtual 5K, 10K, and half marathon options are available, alongside a Kid’s Division 5K Fun Run. The half marathon and 10K begin simultaneously, creating a shared run fest atmosphere rather than a single-distance focus.
The courses traverse Montrose Harbor and are USATF-certified, providing runners with an officially measured route. The half marathon and 10K were formerly known as Country Sole, with the Hot Cider Hustle introducing the autumn theme to the shorter race. Upon finishing, participants receive local caramel apples and hot apple cider. Aid stations and restrooms are positioned throughout the course.
Naperville Half Marathon, 10K & 5K
The Naperville Half Marathon, 10K & 5K all start and finish near downtown Naperville, with the race village close to the center of town. The races are run on a cool October morning and give runners a choice between the half marathon, the Endeavor Health 10K, and the 5K. It is a local event with spectator support, volunteer assistance, personalized bibs, finisher medals, shirt and hoodie options, and post-race food for in-person runners.
The half marathon and 10K courses tour central Naperville, including downtown streets, historic sights, neighborhoods, and a section around Naperville North High School where runners can spot people ahead of or behind them. The course is relatively flat, which makes it friendly for steady pacing. The series also offers a virtual option, and repeat runners can earn consecutive-year finisher medals, premium awards, multi-race awards, and Chicagoland Distance Challenge medals when they qualify.
Duneland Half Marathon and 5K
The Duneland Half Marathon and 5K begins and ends at Dogwood Park in Chesterton, Indiana. The half marathon starts first, followed shortly by the 5K Run/Walk. This event is Race #10 in the Race the Region series, with both distances contributing to series points. The half marathon course is certified, but the 5K course is not.
The event is designed for runners who prioritize efficient logistics alongside the race itself. Timing mats are placed at the start, and chip timing manages finish results. Live results are available via text or email. Directional signs mark every turn. Participants who finish will receive custom medals and shirts. Awards are presented to overall winners, masters runners, and the top three male and female participants in each age group for both races.
Haunted Halloween Half Marathon & 5km
The Haunted Halloween Half Marathon & 5km takes place in late October in Chicago's Lincoln Park. Both the half marathon and 5km begin and end near the Diversey Event Space. The event begins with costume judging prior to the start of the half marathon and 5k, allowing participants to race in attire ranging from a minor Halloween accent to a complete costume suitable for movement.
The half marathon route proceeds south along the lakefront towards the Field Museum before looping back to Lincoln Park, featuring mile markers and four aid stations. The 5k follows the same initial 1.55 miles before turning back. Costumes are a component of the day, with awards for the leading individual and group participants. The event also accommodates practical race-day needs; gear check is available for one standard backpack, which is useful if a costume incorporates an unwieldy item.
Spooky Sprint - Greater Chicago
The Spooky Sprint - Greater Chicago is an annual Halloween-themed running event in the Chicago area. It offers a half marathon, 10k, 5k, 1 mile, and a Kid's Dash. The event is designed for families and mixed groups, not exclusively serious racers, and includes chip timing, live results, and awards for the main timed races.
The shorter distances allow parents, kids, first-timers, and casual walkers to participate on the same day. The Kid's Dash is open to children 10 and under. Kids can run the Kid's Dash without charge if they opt out of the shirt and medal package. All finishers receive race items like a custom bib, designer shirt, and medal. Free participant photos and treats are available at the finish line. A virtual option allows individuals to run independently and still get the event gear.
Halloween Trick or Trot Run 5K/10K/13.1 CHICAGO/EVANSTON
Der Halloween Trick or Trot Run ist ein kleiner Halloween-Lauf auf Chicagos Lakefront Trail. Man kann zwischen 5K, 10K und einem Halbmarathon wählen, dazu gibt es noch eine Familienmeile und eine virtuelle Option. Er ist für Läufer und Walker gedacht, alle Paces sind willkommen. Kinder dürfen mit einer Begleitperson teilnehmen, und die Startgruppen sind begrenzt, um das Teilnehmerfeld überschaubar zu halten.
Die Streckendetails werden den Teilnehmern per E-Mail zugeschickt. Der Lauf findet auf dem Lakefront Trail im Viertel Uptown in Chicago statt. Die Zeitmessung ist optional und ohne Chips; man kann eine App nutzen oder sich von den Koordinatoren helfen lassen. Im Ziel gibt's für alle eine Medaille, ein Shirt, ein Handtuch oder ein Giveaway, plus Halloween-Süßigkeiten. Wer sich spät anmeldet, bekommt das Shirt eventuell nach dem Event per Post. Sind Startgruppen ausverkauft, wird zur Teilnahme am virtuellen Lauf oder zur Warteliste ermutigt. Der Veranstalter koppelt die nach dem Lauf geloggten Meilen auch an Spenden für wohltätige Zwecke.
The Forge Trail Run Festival
Thanksgiving Gobble Trot Run 5K/10K/13.1 CHICAGO/EVANSTON
The Thanksgiving Turkey Gobble Trot is a holiday run held in Chicago and Evanston, offering 5K, 10K, and 13.1-mile distances. It is designed for Thanksgiving, with the straightforward aim of a run or walk before the holiday meal. A kids run is also available for families seeking a shorter option.
The event adopts the "Wobble Before You Gobble" slogan and embraces a turkey-trot atmosphere instead of a competitive racing focus. It accommodates families, friends, community groups, walkers, and runners. Race perks include commemorative items like a long-sleeve shirt or fleece pullover, along with a Do-Rite donuts partnership at the finish.
Turkey Trails - Greater Chicago
Turkey Trails - Greater Chicago is a Thanksgiving-themed running event in Shorewood, Illinois, starting from Route 59 Access. Participants can select a 1 mile, 5K, 10K, or half marathon, accommodating walkers, newer runners, families, and those seeking a longer distance.
The event embraces the holiday spirit with finisher medals, designer shirts, custom bibs, complimentary participant photos, and refreshments at the finish line. The 1 mile and kids' dash are untimed. The 5K and 10K offer youth pricing for children 12 and under. The kids' dash provides children 10 and under with a mini bib, youth shirt, and medal. Chip timing, live results, and awards are provided for the main timed races. A virtual option is available for those unable to attend in Shorewood.
18th Annual F^3 Lake Half Marathon & 5k
F^3 Lake Half Marathon & 5k is a winter running event in Chicago, beginning inside Soldier Field's United Club before runners head out to the lakefront. It features both a half marathon and a 5k, attracting thousands of participants. This event addresses two Chicago-specific needs: a challenging cold-weather test for spring marathon preparation and a structured method to maintain activity post-New Year.
The course runs along the lakefront, with wind and winter conditions intentionally part of the challenge. The half marathon course includes splits at every 5km. Participants start in self-seeded waves, and the race is open to individuals aged 12 and older. All registrants receive a hoodie and a medal. Beyond standard race amenities, prize money is awarded to top overall and masters finishers, free participant photos are published post-race, and the post-race gathering takes place at Weathermark Tavern on South Michigan Avenue.
Chi Town Half Marathon & 10K
The Chi Town Half Marathon & 10K is a Chicago race series with two distances: a half marathon and a 10K. Both routes are USATF certified, and the race is built around the city’s lakefront, with runners moving through Lincoln Park and along Lake Michigan.
The setup is practical for everyday runners, with aid stations and plenty of toilets along the course. At the finish, the race leans into its Chicago identity with Portillo’s and Chicago-inspired finisher medals, and the series has already marked a decade of running in the city.

Über Half Marathon-Läufe in Chicago
Trainingsnotizen aus Chicago
Chicago veranstaltet 25 Half Marathon-Läufe in 2026 innerhalb von 80 km vom Stadtzentrum — bevorstehende Termine, wiederkehrende Serien und andere Läufe in der Nähe, alles an einem Ort.
Der Lakefront Path ist 5 Meilen lang und du kannst jederzeit umkehren. CARA erleichtert die Marathon-Vorbereitung mit Hydration Stations samstags, und Fleet Feet bietet 3-Meilen-Läufe von ihren Filialen in Old Town, Lakeview, Lincoln Square, South Loop und Oak Park an. Die Stadt lebt von den Neighborhood Clubs: Pilsen’s Venados, Rainbow Runners, Frontrunners, Blue Line Run Club, Lakeview Run Club, South Loop Run Club und Peace Runners 773 – jeder hat da so sein Ding. Der Bank of America Chicago Marathon ist das Highlight, und Mount Roos wartet am Ende.
Wer Z2-Einheiten und schöne Aussichten will, fährt am See entlang. Fürs Power-Curve-Training muss man aber raus aus der Stadt. Die Stadt bietet dir 139 Meilen Radwege, 70 Meilen Protected Bike Lanes, Neighborhood Greenways und Off-Street Trails. Chicago Cycling Club, MTC3, Half Acre Cycling, Turbo Tuesday, PSIMET WNR, Pedal & Social und Chicago United Bite Rides decken alles ab, vom Party-Pace bis zu richtig harten Drop-Rides. Der Des Plaines River Trail und der North Branch Unpaved Trail bieten Schotterwege in der Nähe, und am I&M Canal ist es ruhiger. Swallow Cliff hat einen 8 Meilen langen Crushed-Limestone-Loop, und Palos kann dich mit seinen Anstiegen fertigmachen. Die All Spoked Up Spring Challenge ist das Highlight im Frühling.
Frühling und Herbst sind die besten Trainingszeiten in Chicago, und die Locals schätzen diese kurzen Saisons wie Gold. Der Sommer bringt heiße, feuchte Meilen, frühe Starts, eine Brise vom See und viele Wasserstationen. Der Lake Michigan sorgt an manchen Tagen am See für Kühlung, wenn der Wind vom Wasser kommt. Im Winter ändert sich zuerst das Kit, bevor der Trainingsplan angepasst wird. Radfahrer setzen auf Balaclavas, Skibrillen, beheizte Handschuhe, Spikes-Reifen oder Fat Bikes, wenn Schnee und Eis kommen. Läufer halten ihre Base Miles am Laufen, sobald die Wege frei sind. Die Kurve am Lakefront Path nördlich vom Oak Street Beach verdient Respekt, wenn Eis und Wasser drauf liegen.
