(WBBM NEWSRADIO) — If you're one of the more than 40,000 people who ran the Chicago Marathon last weekend, you may want to check if you're missing some gear.

Organizers say there are 190 items in the event’s lost and found.

They range from not-critical objects such as Notre Dame sweatpants or wireless headphones to the essential, like cell phones, keys, wallets, IDs and credit cards.

Someone from Chile even lost a passport, according the marathon's website. A spokesperson tells WBBM Newsradio the items were not picked up from gear check or were turned in at information tents.

The items will be held for one month and then donated if not claimed.

Organizers donated four thousand pounds of clothes left on the course last year to Illinois AMVETS - and expect even more this year.
