2025 Illinois Marathon Full Race

This is the Illinois Marathon that took place on April 26th, 2025, recorded with a GoPro Hero 9 on a chest strap. Unfortunately I somehow didn't realize that the drawstrings on the shirt I was wearing were flapping around in front of the camera while also frequently hitting it, causing a clicking sound. Around mile 17 I finally noticed it and tucked in the strings, so the last 1/3 of the video is unaffected. Quite frustrating, but at least I won't make that mistake again. That aside, I really enjoyed the race and the many enthusiastic volunteers and spectators. I really have to commend all the people manning the water stops and intersections, as you can see they almost always cheer when you go by. Also, shout out to the city of Savoy, they really roll out the welcome mat for the Illinois Marathoners. 42:56 - 5 miles 1:26:41 - 10 miles 1:53:27 - halfway 2:09:53 - 15 miles 2:54:12 - 20 miles Shout outs to motivational bike guy at 3:36:25
