Description
I was just bored. If the Olympics comes to Chicago in 2016 and its final (yet unlikely) stadium is Soldier Field. This marathon begins in Greektown to represent the Olympics was started in Greece and winds its way throughout many neighborhood ending in my propose stadium for the 2016 Olympics- Soldier Field.

P.S. Near Mile 1 and Mile 13.5, there appear to be an intersection, but the Mile 13.5 route is under the Mile 1 route in Lower Canal St (Union Station). to give reference to underground Chicago
