What's your favorite marathon? Mine's Chicago - FAST AND FURIOUS!
Same; although I'm from Canada, I've done 15 different marathons in the US (21 in N.A. and Europe) and my favourite is Chicago.
You had me at "favourite."
Your mom
Grandma's Marathon.
(I have never run Chicago.)
Big Sur
Vermont City
Houston. Big city, fast, usually good weather, without a massive cluster f at the start/finish.
Yonkers
+1 for Chicago.
Of course, I have only done Chicago and NYC. Both were great, but I give NYC extra points because I lived a block off of the course when I was a young kid, so there is a nostalgic effect there. Still, the fact that Chicago is so flat, and the fact that you start and finish at roughly the same place (an area with plenty of hotels) makes Chicago a tough race to beat.
Doing Boston for the first time in April.
With the Big 3 in the books, the next on my list would be Grandma's. After that, it would be some races that had some novel appeal (really beautiful countryside, etc.).
