Amos Kipruto delivered one of the finest Chicago performances ever, running 2:01:09 — the fifth-fastest marathon in history — to claim his first Chicago title and shatter his personal best by 30 seconds. Defending women's champion Hawi Feysa was equally dominant: the Ethiopian repeated in 2:13:33, a personal best that makes her the third-fastest woman in history, while Sharon Lokedi ran 2:14:07 in a runner-up personal best of her own.
