“I’ve watched Chicago running transform over the past 30 years, and one of the questions I get asked most frequently is ‘when are you going to put on a half marathon,'” said Carey Pinkowsi, Bank of America Chicago Marathon executive race director, in a statement.

“We are excited to start our next chapter by bringing a world-class half marathon to our city,” Pinkowski said, “and to further our mission to grow the sport and welcome new runners.”
