Thousands of runners kicked off the spring running season under ideal race conditions at the 38th annual Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle 8K. Grant Park turned green as defending champion, Stephen Sambu, 28, of Tucson, Ariz., sprinted away from the men’s field, breaking the tape in the event’s sixth fastest time ever, 22:47. Two-time Olympian Kim Conley, 31, of Sacramento, Calif., took advantage of the 45 degree temperatures to run away from the women’s field, winning by 59 seconds in 25:43.
The Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle 8K is one of Chicago’s best running celebrations, with a one-of-a-kind course! The Chicago tradition continues the St. Patrick’s Day celebration and kicks off the spring running season in Chicago. The run’s unique 8K (4.97 miles) course weaves its way through downtown Chicago, starting and finishing in Grant Park.
Not up for the run? Join the walk! Walkers will be treated to a scenic 2 mile course along Chicago’s lakefront, starting and finishing in the same location as the 8K run. The walk is a perfect introduction to the Shamrock Shuffle and is ideal for aspiring runners or those looking to take part in the celebration without tackling an 8K (4.97 miles).

Azkoitia, Spain
Distance: Half Marathon
Offical Race Web Site
The Azkoitia-Azpeitia half marathon (Diego García memorial) is one of the most important sport events in the province of Gipuzkoa. It is an open race, as the only condition to take part in it is to be over 14 years old (no matter what sex or nationality participants are, or whether they are federated or not).
Each year, more than 1,000 runners take part in the half marathon, although we have to stand out the number of people in the streets cheering and supporting the athletes. Moreover, during the race there will be several provision points, so that runners can get their strength back.
