The Bank of America Chicago Marathon is tomorrow morning. I can't wait to watch the live reports online. If you go to runnersworld.com you can find lots of good information about the elite contenders. I'm a big Deena Kastor fan, so I'm excited to see what happens. She broke her foot 3 miles into the last Olympics marathon and hasn't run a marathon since then. I first heard about Deena Kastor when I watched the documentary Spirit of the Marathon.
I highly recommend this movie to everyone. Even if you have no desire to run. The movie documents the lives of several runners training for the Chicago Marathon. They highlight the training of very average runners and elites. It's a good movie if you're looking for a little inspiration.
Anyway, enjoy the marathon tomorrow. I'm sure I'll find a little inspiration for running my sub-4 hour marathon in January (especially since these runners tomorrow will be running close to 2 hours).
Happy running!
