Mission Statement

The Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon is committed to being the finest running experience you’ve ever had. Quality is our top priority. Like the runners who join us each year, we will always look for ways to improve our performance.

The Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon is committed to being a responsible member of society, giving back to our communities, state, and charities. We will showcase the best of Champaign, Urbana, and the University of Illinois to all participants in our festival of races.

The Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon is committed to helping everyone — participants and spectators alike — discover the importance of a healthy, active lifestyle. From the youngest to the oldest… from the slowest to the fastest… from youth races to the marathon… we are here to support you!
