Kenyan Evans Cheruiyot took the Chicago Marathon in a time of 2:06:25. It's only his second marathon and he's 2 for 2 with his win at Milan last December.
David Mandago (2:07:37) and Timothy Chergat (2:11:39) took second and third respectively.
Mandago was leading Cheruiyot by several meters at the later stages of the race but Evans pulled ahead and finished more than a minute in front.
Eindhoven Marathon
Kenyans took the men's and women's title in Eindhoven with Geoffrey Mutai (2:07:50) and Lydia Kurgat (2:33:39) crossing the finish line first.
Mutai's was a course record as well as a big, big PR. His previous best was 2:12:36! Perhaps Eindhoven is a fast course?
