Hand off

Went back to corner at 8:25.  At 8:32 Matt came by on the west side of Sheridan.  Slick Olympic relay style hand off of a bike water bottle, a word of encouragement and then he was lost in a sea of humanity.  This was at mile 6.5.  According to Twitter , His 10 K time was 52:41 for a 8:29.  Strong start.  Now back in the comfort of my apartment watching the race on tv before I head back to bed.  One of my more relaxing Chicago marathon days.

    Results not up yet, or I'm not looking in the right place. Go Matt!

    His unofficial finish was 3:44:48 according to the twitter feed. 9:02 pace. Great PR for Mr Fair Use.

    3:44 should be much closer to 8:30 avg. . . .
