    Chicago Marathon 2023

    Expo went smoothly yesterday for packet pickup, although I lost my parking ticket somewhere along the way. They told me to just go to the parking exit where they pushed a ticket to the machine such that I could still use the discounted marathon price - easy peesy!

    The switch was between 4:00 & 4:15.

    I just checked, and your pacer slowed down an average of almost 1 min per mile for the last 6 miles, and he still finished in 4:21:33, so he was definitely on a 4:15 pace through mile 20. My pacer also went out too fast, so I dropped him at about mile 5. Just checked his splits, and he was an...

    Don’t know if this was already posted somewhere, but there was a small change on the Galloway pacers with the 4:00 and 4:15 pacers switching with each other…

    Marathon Weekend 2023

    Since we are talking PSAs: waiting until 1:45p on Saturday is a no-hassle way to attend the expo. No waiting anywhere except for very short lines for Goofy and Dopey character pics. The only downside is that the volunteers are teetering on insanity based on the number of Little Mermaid songs...

    They should be fine (each under 3.4oz) if they all fit in a 1 quart bag. You may get a little more leeway if you are TSA Pre-Check.

    Maybe leave your car at Epcot, take a bus back to the Swan hotel after the 10k, then take the boat to HS.

    Officially, they say “…by Dec 31st,” and I don’t think they typically release things on the weekend, so I’m hoping for tomorrow at this point. But you may be right that it won’t be until Saturday.

    I must admit, I’m more looking/waiting for the Expo Passes.

    Marathon Weekend 2023

    You can always start in a later corral if you want to run the 27k faster. Given the large number of Galloway runners at rD events, I do agree that this makes the most sense. If you only give the r/w folks one side (e.g., walkers to the right), it will get too clogged because of the shear...

    New waiver and check-in for races

    This was same process as last MW, so should be similar to what you experienced last year. I believe we first see our bib assignment as part of the Expo Pass.

    Marathon Weekend 2023

    My Southwest experience from yesterday: we had a 1:25p flight from Chicago to Sarasota to visit my step mother. When I woke up at 7am, there was a text (sent at 6:20am) saying that our flight was cancelled. I immediately clicked on the rebooking link they texted me, and there were no options...
