At Sunday’s Chicago Marathon, Emily Sisson makes her return, nearly three years after Olympic Trials disappointment. Conner Mantz makes one of the most anticipated U.S.
men’s debuts in 26.2-mile racing. It is not the norm, but an American will be one of the spotlight runners in both the men’s and women’s elite races at a major marathon.
Peacock airs live coverage at 8 a.m. ET. Sisson, 30, starts her first mass marathon since dropping out of the Olympic Trials on Feb.
29, 2020, her legs “destroyed” on the hilly Atlanta course where she started as arguably the favorite. She ran the virtual New York City Marathon later in 2020, but that was solo (and not in New York City).
