Chicago Marathon Shadow Box
Twenty-six point two miles through Chicago’s streets, cheered on by a city that shows up for its runners: a day like that deserves more than a certificate in a drawer. This Chicago Marathon shadow box brings your race bib, finisher medal and favorite race-day photo together in a clean, gallery-style display made for your wall.
Details
Your runner name, bib number, race year and finish time are UV-printed directly onto wood. Choose the layout that tells your story:
-
Medal only: 9.9 in (W) × 9.9 in (H)
-
Medal + bib: 16.5 in (W) × 11 in (H)
-
Medal + bib + route: 16.9 in (W) × 12.2 in (H)
-
Medal + bib + photo: 13.3 in (W) × 18.5 in (H)
-
Medal + bib + photo + route: 17.7 in (W) × 15.5 in (H)
Your medal ribbon threads through a hidden slot and is secured by the frame backing. Your bib attaches with double-sided tape and can be removed at any time. Your photo is printed inside the shadow box, and the Chicago Marathon route map is UV-printed on the wood, so every mile you ran stays crisp.
Our promise
Before anything is produced, we send you a mockup to confirm, so you see the exact layout and wording first. To order, choose your layout and fill in the fields on this page: runner name, bib number, year and finish time, plus your bib size or photo upload if your layout includes them. Colors and material tones may vary slightly with lighting and screen settings.
How it’s made
Every shadow box is made to order in our small studio. Your details and the route map are UV-printed straight onto the wood instead of applied as stickers, and the medal ribbon locks under the frame backing, so the medal becomes part of the display rather than something taped on top.
Who it’s for
A gift for the Chicago Marathon finisher in your life, one that outlasts flowers: a daily reminder of the training, the doubt and the moment they proved it was worth it.
