The Streets of Downtown Chicago Turned Green at the forty-fourth Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle
Sold-out Field Celebrates the Start of Spring in Chicago
CHICAGO,Illinois – Thousands gathered in Grant Park Sunday morning to kick off Chicago’s spring season at the forty-fourth Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle. Featuring a sold-out field, more than 26,500 participants crossed the finish line on Columbus Drive on a cloudy, chilly morning. Gable Sieperda broke the tape, taking the crown in the men’s race in twenty-two minutes fifty-two seconds, while Amy Davis-Green defended her title, winning the women’s race in twenty-five minutes thirty-one seconds. Samantha Schroth and Angelo Perez won the wheelchair competition.
“It was great to see thousands of participants in Grant Park wearing green and starting the spring season in Chicago,” said Executive Race Director Carey Pinkowski. “The Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle brings the Chicago running community together in a unique and celebratory way and is the perfect way to kick off the 2025 Bank of America Chicago Distance Series.”
Gable Sieperda of the Iowa-based Fitness Sports Distance Project made his move in the race’s final stretch on Roosevelt Road, breaking away from a group of four elite men to sprint to the finish in twenty-two minutes fifty-two seconds. Shuaib Aljabaly of the Hansons-Brooks Original Distance Project and Curtis Eckstein of the Working Man’s Track Club followed close behind, both finishing in twenty-two minutes fifty-six seconds.
Amy Davis-Green of the Hansons-Brooks Original Distance Project won the women’s race for the second year in a row, improving on her 2024 time by more than 20 seconds to break the tape in twenty-five minutes thirty-one seconds. Claire Green came in second in twenty-five minutes fifty-six seconds and Anne-Marie Blaney, also of the Hansons-Brooks Original Distance Project, rounded out the top three for the second consecutive year with a twenty-six minutes four seconds.
The Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle hosted the fifteenth Deloitte Elite Club Competition, featuring more than 70 elite USATF-member club teams from around the country. The teams competed head-to-head for a thirty thousand dollars prize purse. On the men’s side, Gazelle Elite won with their top four runners clocking a combined score of twenty-six minutes four seconds. Minnesota Distance Elite finished second in one hour thirty-four minutes thirty seconds, and Fitness Sports Distance Project A finished third in one hour thirty-five minutes eleven seconds.
In the women’s competition, Hansons-Brooks Original Distance Project rose to the top of the podium with a combined score of one hour forty-eight minutes thirty-two seconds. Nameless Track Club finished second in one hour forty-eight minutes forty-five seconds, and Front Range Elite finished third in one hour forty-nine minutes thirty-nine seconds.
This year’s Deloitte Elite Club Competition also featured a mixed division, with teams combined of at least two men and at least two women. Hansons-Brooks Original Distance Project took the title with a time of one hour thirty-seven minutes thirty seconds. Brooklyn Track Club came in second in one hour forty-three minutes thirty seconds, and The Track Club Boulder finished third in one hour forty-three minutes forty-eight seconds.
