Participating in the Oct. 13 Bank of America Chicago Marathon? Volunteering? Joining the thousands of spectators?
Everyone planning to be part of this year’s marathon is being encouraged to participate in the Laces for Boston fundraising effort currently under way at www.chicagomarathon.com.
Donate $26 or more to the One Fund Boston and receive a pair of blue shoe laces while helping to raise funds for the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing.
Once you have donated, laces will be available for pick-up at the Bank of America Chicago Marathon Health & Fitness Expo at McCormick Place, Hall B1, from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Oct. 11, and from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Oct. 12.
