Be a part of the First Midwest Bank Southwest Half Marathon and enjoy one of the Midwest's finest events of its kind. From world class runners to physically challenged athletes who will compete in the Walk, Run or Roll competition, the Southwest Half Marathon offers an extremely fast, flat course with chip timing, 5-year age group awards, $10,000 in cash prizes and commemorative medals for all finishers.

Since 2008, the Southwest Half Marathon has raised more than $100,000 for American Cancer Society for Prostate Cancer and Research, the South West Special Recreation Association and the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America. With a prestigious 2011 "Runners Choice" Circuit Race designation from the Chicago Area Runners Association, and the 2010 Governor's Hometown Award, a full field of 2,500 contestants and record numbers of volunteers, fans and spectators are expected.
