    September 20, 2017 Reporters May Contact: Alex Sawyer, Bank of America Chicago Marathon, 1.312.992.6618 [email protected] Diane Wagner, Bank of America, 1.312.992.2370 [email protected] Olympians, NYC Champions Among Added Athletes to 2017 Bank of America Chicago Marathon Elite Field CHICAGO - Today, the Bank of America Chicago Marathon announced changes to the elite field for the Oct. 8, 2017 race. Men’s field Stanley Biwott (KEN) will make his Bank of America Chicago Marathon debut as the seventh- fastest man in history over the marathon distance (2:03:51) and the 11th-fastest in history over the half marathon on a record-eligible course (58:56). Biwott made his mark in the Abbott World Marathon Majors with a victory at the 2015 TCS New York City Marathon, and with a standout performance at the 2016 London Marathon, finishing second to Eliud Kipchoge (KEN) in a career best, 2:03:51 (Biwott and Kipchoge share the 30K world record, 1:27:13, set during the London Marathon). Biwott has finished in the top five of 10 marathons. Feyisa Lilesa (ETH) gained international attention at the 2016 Rio Olympics when he finished the marathon with a silver medal. However, he initially made a name for himself in 2010 when, just two months after his 20th birthday, he became the youngest athlete to break 2:06 in the marathon with a 2:05:23 performance in Rotterdam. He has run well in Chicago, finishing third in 2010 and coming back in 2012 to chase Tsegaye Kebede (ETH) to the line for second place and a new personal best, 2:04:52.

After months of weather that required some additional determination to get out and train, I think most club members will be looking forward to the traditional spring road races and the start of the Track and Field season. I hope that our fell and off road specialists, who seemingly revelled in the mud and adverse weather will cope with the warmer and hopefully at least drier weather! The club seniors who ran the London Marathon and got sunburnt whilst doing so, must have had mixed feelings about the return of the sun! I hope everyone has a good summer at whatever their favourite discipline is.

  • Read 334 Inspiring Stories
    Inspiring stories from AudioFuel customers Since I've been an audiofuel customer, running has helped me deal with depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Even when I feel low, tired and like I don't want to carry on, listening to audiofuel tracks helps to give me the motivation I need to get out and run. When I run, it helps improve my mood and this in turn helps me to live life to its fullest. ______________________ I lost 3 stone after running to audio fuel pyramid 200 and went on to complete a half marathon having only trained for 10 weeks ! My proudest moment was when I planned to go out for a 3 mile run, got lost and managed to run 5 miles! My first distance larger than 3 miles, and I kept at the same pace. I was so proud of myself! ______________________ Inspiration from Team AudioFuel Page 1 of 79 I'm 62 and have been exercising routinely for decades. However I amped it up with the interval training and not only did I peel off a few pounds, but my energy is great! I love intervals and so does my dog. (I also out ran my 37 year old son, and it inspired him to amp it up too!) ______________________ Having come back from 8 months of injury and operations, all my running has been done to audiofuel, without it I don't think I would be back running 4 times per week. The speed session is slower but I can see improvement, the long runs painfully slow.
