Chicago Event Management

Chicago Event Management produces running events including the Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle, Bank of America Chicago 13.1, and Bank of America Chicago Marathon, with the mission of connecting the communities we serve through the events we produce. Over the course of the year, over 15,000 volunteers are needed in order to successfully produce these events. 

Here is more information about each event:

• Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle: www.shamrockshuffle.com

• Bank of America Chicago 13.1: www.chicago13point1.com
