In 2007, the temperature was sultry. This year's Chicago Marathon saw the thermometer dip below 36 degrees with a stiff wind. Nevertheless, Kenyan Sammy Wanjiru set the course record at 2 hours, 5 minutes, and 41 seconds. Nothing slows these guys down. A fast Russian chick won the women's marathon, with American Deena Kastor, back from a broken foot, finishing sixth.I hope they all had fine Italian beef sandwiches and deep dish pizza.

Wow!
Do they ever wind up running in pouring rain? I'd pay to see that... I'm cruel...
I believe they have.
Chicago in October is a weather grab bag.
