Follow me as I run the Chicago 2023 Marathon. From gear check up, starting line, in race support, mile check ups, finish line, and of course the end of race snacks. I enjoyed the entire race, the city, and all the free chocolate donuts at the end. I also passed Matt Choi at minute 4:17. Pretty cool seeing him as I passed him by. #marathonrunner #chicagomarathon #bostonqualifier #marathonexperience

Seattle Hot Chocolate 15k Race Cancelled | What is my next race?
I have been wanting to do this one, and your videos really help in knowing what the marathon will be like. You have done so many west coast marathons... I recommend Royal Victoria Marathon (it looks to be one of the ones you have not yet done).
pretty darn good photography! I hope you run it this your so we can get some more vids
Congrats! What shoes did you wear for this? Curious if high stack lightweight carbon road runners would be a bad idea. I'm excited for this race!
Hey! I actually wore some road running Nike shoes looking back at my pictures. The race organization says that regular road running shoes should be fine as the gravel is fine and should not obstruct your racing. That being said it depends how comfortable you are running on gravel. Carbon fiber not sure if it would be good use because it’s not paved. But use what you feel more comfortable with and not change too much before the race.
I ran the marathon too. I thought it was a beautiful and brutal course. Great job on the run and the video!
It sure was. SF has no many scenic views even at 5am. And thank you. Glad to know other people enjoyed it.
I was there as well for my first marathon! Though way further back in the pack lol. Congrats on putting this one in the books
That’s great! I hope it was enjoyable even though running a marathon is hard.
Good job congratulations! I was there last weekend but for the 2nd half marathon.
Thank you! Glad you also ran it too. It was a good day for running.
Good pace!
Thank you 🙏🏼
3:07 is super fast ! Thank you so much on the details and I am from Taiwan will go to join this race at this year. I wonder what you bring to light in the tunnel ? Using your phone or something ?
People usually bring their own small flashlights. There is a drop off after the tunnel to leave it. I used my phone into the tunnel. It’s much better if you run next to other people with light so it’s easier to see because the road is not smooth so watch your step in the tunnel
Do you get to choose which world major you want to qualify from this race, either Boston and Chicago?
You can run any of those two with this race as long as you meet the race’s time per age and gender conditions. So if you meet the requirement by the time you finished you can. I used the twin cities marathon race to run Boston and Chicago.
Amazing! Thanks for doing this video. I’ll be there for the September one. Hopefully BQ. Cheers from Mexico
That’s awesome. Good luck and hopefully you enjoy it
@@donutwalkrun thanks!!
@@donutwalkrun BTW sorry for all the questions, should I consider medium length socks because of gravel? … I usually don’t wear socks or just no-show lightweight Injinji but I think this is not a good idea?
I would consider something that is at least a bit higher than the ankle. Most of the race is on a trail with gravel. The only part that is not is the tunnel which is paved but even that has some gravel and there are pot holes and puddles. Careful to watch how you step in the tunnel, you can easily land on an awkward area and potentially fall.
@@donutwalkrun thanks a lot!
You mentioned flat race? I thought this was a downhill marathon. Thanks.
I signed up for this years' race 14 days ago and this video is greatly appreciated. I am 5 hours away from race time, so Thank you for this video. Gave me a bit of confidence and what to expect
That’s awesome. 👏🏼 good luck
@@donutwalkrun 3:41 with no concept for anything to do during a marathon except this video. I’m locked in for next year and with a group having me prep for sub 3. Thanks again!
Great job man. I'm in the process of training for a sub 4, baby steps.
Thank you. For sure baby steps. Avoid an injury by increasing the load slowly.
Thanks for posting this. I'm due to run the 2024 edition and this gave me a good idea of what to expect.
That’s great. I’m hoping through these video experiences it gives a perspective of what to expect.
Best advice u can give for someone trying to get a sub 3 how should they start off with there pace
I can only speak for myself. If this is not your first race and have had a consistent training plan for a couple of months, I would keep the pace constant throughout that would match the finish time you are shooting for. Some people like to go all out the first half but lose steam and get a big negative split. Personally I keep track of time and the course elevation and try to hit time markers based on the mile I am in
25.91mi? Is the LA Marathon a little short?
Insane atmosphere! Thanks for sharing, pretty awesome you ran by Matt Choi. Love to do this Chi one day but it might be hard for me to CQ hopefully the lottery is kind.
It was an awesome race. Compared to the other ones there were by far more people who run and take this race seriously. Even if it’s through the lottery, great race to run
Congratulations!! If you're ever back in minneapolis, head over to north loop. That area tends to be a lot busier!
Thanks for the rec. I will try to do that next time. I did enjoy this race enough to return
well done it was a perfect day out there for a PR
Definitely was
Nice job man! I know this wasn't an easy job to do, like running & holding the stick... I've run this Chicago marathon for 5 times but wasn't able to participate this year because l got injured - torn miniscus. But thanks for taking time to do this. I really enjoyed watching your video.. kudos to you! Inspite of taking video, you got your PR too...Congrats!!
I appreciate the support. Holding on to the go pro is definitely not easy. It becomes a challenge getting water in the water stations throughout the races. I hope you recover well to run it again.
Congrats on the PR. I enjoyed your superview shots of the city.
Thank you 🙏🏼 I appreciate it. Chicago definitely has big city views. It was nice.
Congratulations on this fantastic achievement, i also ran my new best time two weeks before with 2:56:22. Your video pretty much reflects the feeling of being at the event and lets us decide for ourselves what effect it had!💫
That’s an awesome time! And thank you. That is one of my goal for this channel, to give you an idea of what to expect during that specific marathon.
I saw you bumped into matt choi at 4:17 lol Dude you are insane, I hope I can run one of these some day and bump into you. If I do I hope you take a picture with me!
I did!! He looks more muscular in bigger in person but it was cool seeing him as I passed him by. You can do it for sure. If you do run we can definitely take a picture. 👍🏼
@@donutwalkrun hell yeah!
Hey what great video. I really enjoyed it. Your a good runner. I used to run this marathon back in the 90s. Your video along the route was cool. Congratulations Your a winner.
Thank you 🙏🏼
First gel at mile 17? But you looked strong and BQ'd so ill shut up. 😆
Is this the Tunnel Marathon? The tunnel looks familiar
It’s the super series marathon but I believe there is another one called end of the tunnel or something like that. It’s the same course just different organization 👍🏼
@@donutwalkrun I see, thanks
Researching these races, Jack and Jill and the tunnels marathon I believe this one is 1500 elevation lost vs 2000 for the other 2. I also thought they were all on same course but this one the beginning seems flatter. Also the tunnel seemed a few miles in till u reached it. The other 2 I thought they were at the beginning. Hard to get solid info on the comparison. Trying to decide which to do. Great video!
Huge congrats. I’m doing it for the first time this year. What was your pacing strategy? Did you bank time before the hill at 20 miles?
Thank you! My strategy is usually to keep a constant ice throughout. I don’t like banking time. My splits are almost very even. However when I see a hill I conserve energy, take smaller steps and go on a slower pace. It usually makes up for it on the down hill which there happened to be one here. Good luck!👍🏼
What a baller
Great job marathoner, usually there’s more people out cheering for the LA Marathon. I’m guessing the cold weather kept a lot of people in this year. 🎉🔥
thanks! I think you are right. There was decent support but the cloudiness and rain kept people away for sure
See u in Chicago 2023... I am doing the Vancouver BMO 2023 this week.
Awesome! I hope you enjoyed Vancouver. I hope you are as excited as me for Chicago.
Thanks, man. You did a good job.
I appreciate the support 🙏🏼
Still pretty healthy for a cheat meal lol, I was expecting a chinese buffet or something xD
Lol. Yeah. It was but all in moderation. Next one won’t be as clean but keeping it just a meal
@@donutwalkrun can you show the stretches you do before and after a run? I've been getting knee pains lately
Thats awesome. Did you wake up earlier a week before the marathon to prepare? The snacks and massage sounds amazing afterwards
I usually wake up everyday at 5 so didn’t change my sleeping habit but it’s hard to sleep the night before because of the excitement 😬
@Donut Walk, Run sheeeeesh, lol... I'm gonna need to change my sleeping habits... Do you usually eat before your runs and do you train daily in the mornings, afternoons or evenings?
Beast
🙏🏼
@Donut Walk, Run I was never a runner and picked it up to improve my stamina for tennis but I think I am really starting to enjoy running. Hope I can get a chance to complete a half marathon this year. Love your content dude.
I enjoy tennis as well. Running definitely helps with cardio fitness. I appreciate the support and will keep posting races and nutrition. More races to come
@Donut Walk, Run Thanks and that's awesome! I'm sure the others along with myself would greatly appreciate any advice and tips.
Hell yeah, that was too easy for ya. I hope I can do what you did to.
I appreciate that. If I could then you definitely can as well
Good time... élite time...
Thank you very much!
Incredible timing, well done
Thank you! I appreciate that
sir plzzzz reply I started running and I do some weight training also but I wanna get lean and skinny but with 6 pack should I continue to weight training or just ignore it plzzzz because I dont want huge muscles just six pack abs plzzzz reply sir
Weight training helps to build muscle which helps have a faster metabolism. But in order to see your abs you need to lose weight. We all have abs but we need to be lean enough to see them. In my experience, losing weight while retaining muscle will show your abs. However this might require very low body fat which might not be sustainable. Good luck
Keep going 💪 you look good
Thank you 🙏🏼
Great!!!! Wondering race. Wonderful city and nice people. Thanks a lot
Congrats on you BQ! The course looks pretty. Is it pretty flat? It’s on my to do list.
Thank you! It was pretty flat. A small climb but barely noticeable and short small hills. I would recommend.
Nice review, thanks. Do they fit true to size? Some say the Pro2's toebox fits a little narrower.
I think they are true to size. The pros are a little more narrow in the tip than the speeds. This may be due to the technology underneath the sole. Unless you like your foot to feel a little, then order a half size up or maybe look into the wider type instead of regular
What is your goal pace for the TC marathon?
I am trying to hit under 3:05. The course is not very flat but hoping since it’s a cooler climate that it will not tire me out
@@donutwalkrun Nice! I am targeting around the same time! See you on the course and good luck!
Man, they look awesome. How much was the whole thing?
I think it came out to about 60$. It’s been a while but they did give a 10% discount for a dozen I believe.
That National Anthem was 🔥! Congrats!
Definitely
Good run mate
Thanks you!
Great information in this video 💎. The secret to YT success - P-R-O-M-O-S-M!!
Thank you for the encouragement and the tip!
It’s a nice way to end my last nye here. Moving away from Hawaii soon

Thanks for the tip! We will try next time.
Awesome video thanks
I am glad you enjoyed it!
