WHAT: The Allstate Life Insurance℠ Chicago 13.1 Marathon® is a premier stop on the Allstate Life InsuranceSM 13.1 Marathon® Series circuit. This year, the Michelob ULTRA post-race party concludes the event, quenching the thirst of participants with an ice cold Michelob ULTRA. Nothing goes better with an ice cold beer than a slice of Lou Malnati’s pizza, which will be back with free pizza for all the participants.
Runners will enjoy a beautiful half-marathon course along the lakefront and the sounds of 10 party stations while they run. At the finish line all runners will enjoy festivities with friends and family including live entertainment, food and refreshments, and the chance to donate the shoes off their feet through a special partnership with Allstate® and GiveYour Sole, which provides worn athletic shoes for those in need.
