When is the major marathon?: 

The Chicago Marathon is in October, and sells out early each year. It is one of the biggest marathons in the country, and for a good reason. The city of Chicago really supports this marathon, and spectators will cheer for you the entire 26 miles.

Where can I get a running event schedule?: 

The CARA Race Calendar is the most extensive race calendar for the Chicagoland area. http://www.cararuns.org/Racing/Find%20a%20Race.aspx
