Chicago Marathon – Numbers and Lessons Learned

The Chicago Marathon (Part 1, Part 2) was three months ago - this quarter flew by! The weeks leading up to the marathon I dedicated posts to race related topics (Motivation,Logistics, Packing, Outfits).  I thought it would be appropriate to wrap up all things Chicago with a look at the numbers and lessons learned.  Lessons Learned This year I logged more miles training for Chicago vs. NYC, however, they were not all quality miles.
