Corre em Chicago com um local

The must-run routes

• The Lakefront Trail — nearly 18 miles of flat lakeside path on Lake Michigan with the skyline behind you — Chicago's signature route, fast and epic.
• The Chicago Riverwalk & the Loop — right at the river's edge past drawbridges and downtown architecture, a supremely photogenic urban loop.
• The 606 (Bloomingdale Trail) — 2.7 miles of elevated former rail line through Wicker Park, Bucktown and Logan Square, away from traffic.
• Lincoln Park & North Pond — the city's biggest park, its lagoons and shaded paths, an ideal loop for an easy morning endurance run.
• Museum Campus & Northerly Island — on the lakefront by the planetarium and aquarium, the best head-on view of the skyline.

Run like a local

Your guide isn't a service provider — they're a Chicagoan who loves to run and wants to show you their city. They adjust the pace and distance to your level, pick the route to suit the time of day and the lake wind — a quiet Lakefront in the morning, the Riverwalk and the Loop at golden hour — and share the Chicago you won't find in guidebooks. Many of our Chicago guides are running-club members (parkrun, neighbourhood run crews) and sports students who know their training loops by heart. You leave with a real memory — and often a GPX track to run again on your own.

Com quem correr em Chicago?

Procuras alguém para te acompanhar num run em Chicago? Um local está à tua espera. Em vez de correres sozinho numa cidade que não conheces, juntas-te a um morador que já corre neste terreno: abre-te o seu percurso, ajusta o ritmo ao teu e mostra-te a cidade em movimento.

Descobrir Chicago a correr, a um ritmo tranquilo

Não vens à procura de marca? Muitos guias propõem um run de descoberta a ritmo lento — uma corrida leve, quase a passo, para ver a cidade sem a atravessar a cronómetro. Para-se nos miradouros e dá-se tempo para olhar: é uma forma de descobrir Chicago em movimento com um local, a um ritmo que te deixa observar tudo.

Pode-se correr em grupo em Chicago?

Sim. No TourMyRun, um run é conduzido por um local que recebe um pequeno grupo de corredores: juntas-te a outras pessoas, de passagem ou da terra, durante um run coletivo, sem teres de correr sozinho. É o grupo de um run TourMyRun — conduzido por um morador — não um clube nem um crew de fora.

Self-guided routes

Public, well-known routes you can run on your own — a solid plan B to get moving right away. But the best of TourMyRun is still discovering them with a local who takes you, at your pace.

• The Lakefront Trail — Navy Pier heading north≈ 3 miles one-way, flat, extend at will

  A flat paved path along Lake Michigan, with a runners-only lane, heading toward Fullerton and Lincoln Park. The Chicagoans' go-to run — mind the lake wind. A continuous ribbon of nearly 18 miles if you want to go long.

• The Chicago Riverwalk & the Loop≈ 2.5 miles (downtown loop)

  A walk right at the river's edge between drawbridges and skyscrapers, extendable to the lake via the Lakefront Trail. The best of Chicago architecture at running pace.
