Thank you to everyone that participated in the 1st Annual Rockford Marathon. The event was met with fantastic weather and more than 1,300 runners registered to take part in Chicago's newest marathon!
"I ran yesterday in the full marathon and want to compliment the race organizers on a very well-run event. The course was extremely well-marked, volunteers were everywhere, the traffic direction by the police was flawless, hydration was plentiful and you had great weather on top of it. Very impressive." (Ken, Chicago, IL)
