Over 7,000 runners are expected to hit the Chicago streets Sunday for the Life Time Spring Half Marathon, 10K and Junior Dash half-mile races, leading to multiple street closures.
The half marathon will step off at 7 a.m. and the 10K at 7:45 a.m., as both both races begin on Columbus Drive, south of Monroe Street, then follow the Lakefront Trail, according to a release from organizers.
Currently, more than 6,000 runners are signed up for the race, but organizers expect that number to exceed 7,500 by race day. A number of streets will be closed off to make room for the runners on Sunday.
