Men’s national record holder Kengo Suzuki (Fujitsu) was at Sunday’s Chicago Marathon. Suzuki seemed to be staying calm in the lead group, but when the real move came he didn’t have the same kind of closing speed he had at March’s Lake Biwa Marathon and was left behind by the lead true.

Suzuki ended up 4th in 2:08:50, the fastest time by a Japanese outside Japan so far this year. Seifu Tura Abdiwak (Ethiopia) took 1st in 2:06:12.

In the elite women’s race Shiho Kaneshige (GRlab Kanto) tailed the lead pack with America Elaina Tabb through the first half of the race according to plan on sub-2:30 pace.
