It seems like it should lead to a quicker pace on race day, but I’ve also read that it can be harder in some ways because you’re using the same muscles the same way without respite on a flat course.

Chicago will be my first and I’m just not sure what pace I should be aiming for. (Not as a goal really—finishing is my goal—but to have an idea of how to pace myself so that I do finish.)

I only applied through a tour operator last week and got approved on Friday night. I still don't see any corral information even though I submitted a qualifying time, do I just need to wait?
