I was very impressed by the extra care and caution taken by the event planners do to the heat.

I always enjoy volunteering in Chicago. It is great to see people from all walks of life there for the same thing. The only issue was a lack of race guards for the slower runners. As a back of Pack Pacer we often come across runners struggling and try to help them the best we can, but if they fall behind us and our 16 min pace we don't know what happened to them.

It always amazes me that while I am encouraging complete strangers along the course, I end up encouraged along the way. More races need to have opportunities like this. So many runners needed our support today.
