- Daniela Mischne closed hard — her 102nd-fastest women's split from 15K to the finish helped her hold 2nd in 1:37:44, just 1:38 back.
- Emma Orend ran the strongest late-race stretch of the top three, posting the 125th-fastest women's split from 10K to 15K on her way to 3rd in 1:39:08.
- Annika Carlson faded from a promising start: she entered the 5K–8K stretch ranked 84th among women before sliding to 162nd by the finish.
Nora Enright set the standard in the F0-14 age group, covering Chicago's 13.1 miles at a 7:20/mi clip to win in 1:36:06. She held steady through the middle of the race — sitting 76th among women after the opening 5K — and while she drifted slightly to 84th among women by the finish, the work was already done. No one in the age group came close to matching her pace on the day.
Behind her, the battle for 2nd and 3rd played out in contrasting styles. Daniela Mischne (1:37:44) was the stronger closer, climbing from 113th among women at 15K all the way to 103rd by the tape. Emma Orend (1:39:08) did her best damage in the 10K-to-15K stretch, then continued to advance through the women's field to finish 131st — a steady, progressive effort that earned her the final podium spot by 37 seconds over Laila Corzo.
The most dramatic trajectory belonged to Annika Carlson. She ran the opening miles aggressively, sitting 84th among women through 5K, but the pace caught up with her — she fell to 162nd among women by the finish, crossing in 1:40:33 for 5th. Grace Day and Sydney Day (no relation listed, both from Naperville) added a local flavor to the mid-pack, finishing 7th and 9th respectively. All told, 56 girls 14-and-under finished on a cool, clear Chicago morning — solid conditions that helped the top of the field post genuinely quick times.
