Breaking the men's marathon world record at Chicago 2026
Original: What would it take to break the men’s world record at the Chicago Marathon 2026?
Attention is turning to the 2026 Chicago Marathon and what conditions would be needed for a man to break the world record over the distance. The flat, fast course has a history of record-chasing performances, and discussion centres on pace, weather, and which elite runners might take aim at the mark in October.
Why now: The question of whether the men's marathon world record could fall at Chicago 2026 is being actively discussed in athletics circles.
