Although the spring season of the World Marathon Majors has not yet concluded, one of the Majors' fall races, the Bank of American Chicago Marathon, has already sold out at 45,000 entries, organizers announced today.

"It is great to see the continued commitment from runners across the globe who registered for this race more than six months in advance," said Bank of America Illinois Market President Tim Maloney through a prepared statement.  "We're pleased to match their enthusiasm with our continued commitment to host the Bank of America Chicago Marathon in world-class fashion."

Entries for the October 11 race are still available, however, through one of the race's 70 affiliated charities.  Complete information on charity entries are at this link: http://www.chicagomarathon.com/CMS400Min/Chicago_Marathon/giving_back/index.aspx?id=5041

In 2008, the Bank of America Chicago Marathon was the second largest marathon in the United States with 31,401 finishers.   The ING New York City Marathon was the largest with 38,096 finishers.
