  • The Official Race Guide
    THE OFFICIAL RACE GUIDE www.christieclinic.com A Message from Christie Clinic’s Chief Executive Officer Hello, Friends, Welcome to the eighth Annual Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon! Thank you for being part of this incredible event. From the thousands of participants who run, walk, and jog to the thousands From left to right: Dr. Eric Helfer (Christie), John of volunteers who share their time and the Wagner, Steve Meid, Dr. Ryan Porter (Carle), Justin Kirby, and Kenny Bilger (Christie CEO). community members who cheer at every corner, the Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon brings out the very best in our community. I congratulate each of you for participating and choosing an active lifestyle. We also hope others not only notice but also choose to take action. Every year I meet runners who have chosen to jettison their sedentary lifestyles, choosing instead to regularly exercise. I’ve met young children and adult children running with their parents, even some grandparents. People who thought they could never complete a 5K, 10K, half or full marathon but who set a goal and worked toward achieving it. In the end, everyone wins just by participating. Christie Clinic has provided quality health care to residents of east-central Illinois for nearly nine decades, and we love to see people being active and helping to improve the health of our communities. Since its inception seven years ago, the Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon has entertained 123,500 active participants and 21,000 volunteers. Together, we’ve raised more than three quarters of a million dollars for charity and added more than $60 million to the local economy.
