There is a spot on the expressway very near the Chicago city border

I had some other choices, but the expressions were best here.
The official on the bike was disappointing, but

Nice shot. At first I wanted the official in focus,
There is a very slight grade at the finish. The winner said that he
looked at the two other guys with him and decided he felt better than
they did so he turned on his sprint. He picked up some 5 seconds.

Hello Bob,
Nice shot! I like the angle you have on the runners. I have been
trying to decide if the official on the scooter enhances or detracts
from the photo - finally leaning towards enhances because it gives
some context to the photo. Nice going.

I'm sure things worked out OK. The race course folds back on itself
with the 4th mile going North out one street and the 12th mile coming
back South about 2 streets over. At the time of the taxi, 45 minutes
into the race, the elite runners had not reached 12th mile, but the

In any case, there were 3 other hospitals within 1 mile that were
