Hey runners, in today's newsletter, October 11 is shaping up to be a big day.
Chicago goes live at 7 a.m. CT on NBC 5 and Peacock, with more than a million spectators expected along the course and our own watch-along starting half an hour before the gun. Halfway around the world the same day, Eliud Kipchoge lines up in Melbourne for the third stop of his seven-continent tour.
Elsewhere, Jakob Ingebrigtsen won both the 1,500m and 5K at RunFest Norway, the festival he started with his brothers, two weeks after a world road 5K silver and a bout of COVID. And two runners were hit by a motorcycle on the Kuala Lumpur Marathon 10K course.
And as always, we round things out with the practical stuff: 14 health benefits of running, how to make the leap from 10K to half, and eight fixes for heavy legs.
Alex goes way too hard in his "Prove It" workout three weeks before the Valencia Half Marathon. He runs an unofficial 10K personal best of 28:56 in practice, and the two of them debate whether you should ever PR in a workout. Alexis looks back on her 7:09 Bloor Street Mile as her own prove-it moment, starts tapering for her 5K at Toronto Waterfront Marathon weekend, and deals with a possible cold two weeks out from race day.
Fifteen weeks after his 50th birthday, the Kenyan was first across the line on Sunday and, more than two minutes quicker than any man his age had run before.
John Meise, 36, collapsed in the final mile of his first race at the distance on Sunday. The medical examiner is still investigating what caused his death.
Sisson and her husband, Shane Quinn, shared the news on Instagram on Tuesday. The baby is due at the end of March, and it has changed her plans for the fall.
The European record holder tore his calf in his final track session in Flagstaff, Ariz., less than two weeks after organizers added him to the elite field.
With no separate road running award this year, the three distance runners are up against the best of track and field for the main prizes, and voting closes Oct. 17.
An interactive pace plan for every mile of the Chicago Marathon, built by mapping every turn, bridge and change in elevation on the course, calibrated against thousands of performances from the last four races, and adjusted for race-day weather.
McDonald's is handing out its pickle juice as Pickle Boost on the Lakefront Trail on Friday and at five Chicago restaurants on race day, every one of them on or right beside the course.
Welcome to Runs Like Hell, the show where conversations get harder as the pace gets faster. In this season, we travel to Provo, Utah, to interview some of the world's best runners. Our first guests are husband and wife Adam and Mica Wood: aspiring Olympians and prolific content creators. Today, we put their fitness (and relationship) under the microscope.
