Vinny Mauri did it, and now he’s one of the most talked-about American runners at the 2026 Chicago Marathon.\nAlex Cyr caught up with Vinny at the Chicago Marathon athlete availability, two days before his first big-city marathon. Vinny explains the 45-mile day that capped his build: 2 x 50 minutes in the morning and 4 x 20 minutes in the afternoon, both on the treadmill. He also explains how he picks his workouts by asking friends and Instagram followers to “pick a number one to four.”","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/a3NORpFIoIUQrTnE2xXScFo8HEhxH6G0foNOPSlAx7c/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kMWVh/ZTE1YzI3MDk3ODJm/NDFmYmIzNWRkNGM0/NDc0Ny5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
