Yesterday was the Chicago Marathon and there were over 40,000 runners! The men's and women's winners were both from Kenya. It was a really nice day weather-wise, sunny, a little windy with temperatures in the 50s F. The overall Chicago Marathon record time was missed by less than one minute. I read in the paper that there were participants who had run many marathons before including some of the world's most famous ones, and a lot of people running their first one ever whose goal was just to finish it.
