The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Tara Speelman finished 734th of 1,127 women in the Open division at Chicago 2025, in 1:40:20.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:38 behind the median. A harder second half: 3:15 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Chicago 2025 and Chicago 2023 were 3:41 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
