Will you run the Chicago Bank of America Marathon with or without music?
My routine is embrace the crowd, high-five cheering bystanders, throw my hands up to the live music and listen to uplifting shouts of encouragement as we hit each mile.
But, somewhere between mile 10 and 12, I put my earphones in and let the music guide me through.
No matter if you run with or without music here are some songs to add to your playlist.
