      If you care about times, I would race Chicago, easy decision. Flying for a 10 hours plus the jet lag is a big deal. I’ve been in enough races overseas to know that it really impacts performance.

    Love to see the summer and fall plans! If the weather looks bad for Chicago in October, you can always pull out of that and run Detroit the following weekend (10/20). It's just a short drive from Chicago. Great weather usually and takes you into Canada and back to the US. Awesome course (pretty flat outside of a hill at 3 and 8)!

Looking forward to seeing more progression through the rest of the year, genuinely think that ceiling is way off yet!

      A course is made up of public streets. You can’t copyright videos on public streets. Someone needs to challenge the legality of this practice.

      As Eric says, its only filming while within the course which makes sense. There's likely a number of reasons mainly safety as the marathon is trying to keep runners running and not filming. They have photography and can hire teams to film outside the course.
