Chicago
October 1-3, 2021
Your Susan G. Komen 3-Day® started the moment you make the commitment. Your 3-Day coaches will support you as you train and fundraise. Our amazing community of walkers, crew, and volunteers will welcome you as you get ready to spend three magical days together on a journey to end breast cancer forever.
The first day begins with an emotional Opening Ceremony where the adrenaline and anticipation of taking on 60 miles is like nothing you’ve ever experienced before. The feelings of pride and strength you’ll realize while walking 60 miles through the Chicago area are only matched by the spirit and gratitude of the communities you encounter and those you are helping along the way. Soak in the views of the Windy City as you walk along the lakeshore. Then enjoy the beauty of Chicagoland’s tree-lined suburban streets, highlights of downtown, historic architecture and more of what makes Chicago the city second to none!
You’ll spend two nights at the Marriott Marquis Chicago or a nearby hotel, in the embrace of the dedicated 3-Day community, sharing stories, eating meals together and making new friends. It all culminates in a Closing Ceremony celebrating everything you accomplished, remembering those we have lost, and honoring those who are in the fight of their lives.
Please note that the exact route is still being finalized and is subject to change. Developing the ideal course that will provide for a safe and scenic weekend is a long process, involving the cooperation of many jurisdictions.
