Heading into the Chicago Marathon, no American men had run the qualifying time of 2:08:10 for the Olympic marathon next summer in Paris. Now, after a perfect weather day in Chicago—the temperature was 46 degrees at the start and skies were overcast, with low wind—the U.S. currently has two men who have run the time. Conner Mantz was the top American, and sixth overall, running 2:07:47 and taking 29 seconds off his PR from his debut in Chicago last year.
He has had two difficult years since placing second at Chicago in 2021, with back pain causing him to drop out of the 2022 New York City Marathon and meriting a complete overhaul of his biomechanics. Although he didn’t hit the automatic qualifying time, it was a net positive for Rupp, who won Chicago in 2017. “It was a good step forward for me today, I just kind of died the last 6 miles,” Rupp told Runner’s World in a short phone call after the race.
