Race Rundown: The 2025 Chicago Marathon
The 2025 Chicago Marathon, held on Sunday, Oct. 12, generated significant hype, with notable stories emerging from the event, despite no world records being broken.
The Chicago Marathon is one of seven World Marathon Majors, which include Tokyo, Boston, London, Sydney, Berlin, Chicago, and New York, in chronological order.
Although Boston is the oldest established marathon and the most popular at Wellesley, Chicago's flat and quick course makes it an ideal stage for world-record-breaking performances.
Both the men's and women's marathon world records have been set at Chicago marathons:
- the men's record by Kelvin Kiptum in 2023 at 2 hours and 35 seconds
- the women's record by Ruth Chepngetich in 2024 at 2 hours, 9 minutes and 56 seconds
Author's summary: The 2025 Chicago Marathon saw exciting stories unfold.
