About this episode
"I just kept picturing kindness and all these people that I knew would show up for me, and I wanted to show up for them. And for you. And for myself, frankly." I returned to Chicago for the second time, and it was awesome . In this episode, I'm recapping all of the action from Chicago Marathon weekend, including the Abbott Chicago 5K, the New Balance live show , and, of course, race day. Plus, all the social stuff, an architecture tour, and a meaningful moment on the lakefront. SPONSOR: New Balance. Click here to shop New Balance's latest releases for the season.
