The New York Times reported that racing in Chicago showed its newsletter host firsthand how warming is disrupting the sport of marathon running. The article is credited to David Gelles and was published on October 29, 2026.

According to the summary of the Times article, the experience is described as a lesson in how warming affects the sport. The full piece is available as The New York Times article on the Chicago race. The summary available for this report does not describe specific conditions, times or results from the race.

CBS News reported that the New York City Marathon is celebrating the 50th anniversary of its five-borough course. In a report headlined as a volunteer who has helped runners chase glory for 50 years, CBS News described a longtime volunteer who reflects on a "half-century of tradition," according to the report's summary. The report is available as CBS News coverage of the New York City Marathon volunteer. The source record does not name an author for that report.

The two reports cover different events. The Times summary refers to a race in Chicago and to the effects of warming on the sport, while the CBS News summary refers to the New York City Marathon and its volunteer tradition. Neither summary states that the two events are connected, and the CBS News summary does not mention climate or weather.

Neither summary includes direct quotations, figures or additional details beyond those described above. Readers seeking the complete accounts can consult the two reports directly, as the summaries available to this outlet are brief.
