This was a training run for my first marathon and went all balls out = PR. The race day was brutal, it felt like in the negative temperatures, especially with the 20mph winds on the way back. I lost 2 minutes per mile during that time. Event though it made me run slower, I did PR. This race is in Chicago and the price of the race/parking is not cool and that’s why I won’t do a Chicago race again.

This wasn’t a great race nor was it a horrible race. I did not like that there was not race day packet pickup without paying $30. As an out of towner it was less than convenient to get to the packet pickup on that Friday and without adequate directions. I was able to find it but I wish it could have been better mapped out.
The number of participants was good and wasn’t too many and wasn’t too small.
Course volunteers were awesome and water stations nicely spread out.
Swag and medal were nice and I will likely don another of these at some point if my schedule permits.
Overall an average to slightly above average experience.
