Chicago Marathon – The day after

I woke up a bit sore, but given how the run went I was happy to be able to get up. After breakfast we decided to head into the city. Not being silly about my level of soreness a quick check of Google maps showed the bus stop was100m from the hotel would take us straight into the middle of the city. Coffee obtained, bus located.

I had my medal in my pocket and didn’t intend on wearing it. I was thinking about getting in engraved (I’d forgotten that I had paid for an engraved iTab to be posted to me). There were so many people wearing their medals walking around so after a while I decided to join the throngs of people who were proud of their efforts the day before.

We spent the day wandering around, checking out shops. All of the brand name sports shops had DJ’s in them. Keep you pumping whilst you empty your wallet on the good gear 🙂

Somehow we ended up walking back to the hotel early in the evening. Total steps for the day, 16405, which is around 12km.
