Chicago Marathon 2026

I was hoping to go sub 2:50, but it just wasn't my day. I properly executed the first half of the race and was hoping to negative split, but I struggled to keep pace after 16. I decided at 20 to just enjoy the rest of the race and not push, then the cramps came at 23. It didn't feel especially warm, but my body thought otherwise. Onwards and upwards! I recorded the race with my Oakley Meta HSTN glasses. They lasted the whole race, although I finished with about 10%. Clip length automatically went from 3 to 1 minute to save battery.
