Of the participating runners, 25% were visiting Chicago for the first time, and a third came in from international locations, according to Bank of America Chicago president Rita Cook.

The race also pours $680 million into the city's economy, as the runners and those who travel with them are staying at Chicago's hotels, eating at the city's restaurants, and shopping at local businesses.

Cook also emphasized the philanthropic benefits the marathon generates.

"I think the bigger piece is the 18,000 runners that are giving back to over 200 causes," she said. "That is really important from a philanthropic perspective."

Among the runners this year was Otis Hudson, who transitioned to running after years of playing football. He was running to benefit Mercy Home for Boys & Girls, which helps children who have suffered the trauma of neglect, abuse, poverty, and violence.

"I think the transition has been a journey," Hudson said. "I would say running is more intense than football, because you kind of get used to like hitting guys, you know, each and every day. But running, something new comes up, right? So it's a different muscle that hurt this week, and maybe a bone that hurt this week — so it's just something different."
