Official winners and finishing times for the 2026 Chicago Marathon were not confirmed at the time of publication. The race was scheduled for Sunday, October 11, with the men’s and women’s elite competitions set to start at 7:30 a.m. Central Time.
A results listing nevertheless names Kenya’s Amos Kipruto as the men’s winner in 2:01:09, ahead of Ethiopia’s Tadese Bikila and Milkesa Mengesha. It lists Ethiopia’s Hawi Feysa Gejia as the women’s winner for a second consecutive year in 2:13:33, followed by Kenya’s Sharon Lokedi and Brigid Jepchirchir Kosgei.
Those names and times should be treated as unconfirmed: the same race information says the standings await official results. The Chicago event is the 48th edition of the marathon.
