Similarly as fast and fun as Berlin but more organized (expo, corrals, etc). This was my 2nd Chicago Marathon and am tempted to keep going back/running it back (if I can time qualify). Weather was near perfect. Crowd support is as good as it gets (but have not yet experienced NYC). Food (pre and post) in Chicago is on point (so many choices). CTA (trains) makes getting around the city a breeze (also to/from airport).
Berlin Marathon
50th Anniversary Fun

Berlin is as flat and fast as they say it is! Am very appreciative to have run the 50th Anniversary shortly after turning 50 myself. With over 50k runners/finishers, it was likely a bit more strained/crowded than usual/other years but it was still an amazing World Major experience– beautiful neighborhoods/scenery /landmarks and vocal crowd support/great bands/music along the way. Running through the Brandenburg gates is as epic a finish as there is (for me, it was as special as turning on to Boylston Street or finishing in Hayward Field). If you can get in, do it. The expo/crowds/etc are more than worth it.
Eugene Marathon
My favorite race so far!

There’s a reason Eugene, OR is known as Track Town USA. They seriously know how to put on/host a race (in this case, a marathon). Expo was fab, amazing keynote speaker, swag is on point, and finishing inside Hayward Field is something I/you will never forget. Course has a few rollers but is largely fast and fun. Race conditions this year were the best I’ve ever had on a marathon morning (cool/limited sun until the end/later in AM). Just do it.
