Here's a look at the smiles, salutes, and thumbs-ups we captured from this year's Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon.
Layla Jessie, from Schaumburg, and Ian Schrader, from Waterloo, throw up peace signs as they make their way down Washington Street in Urbana while running in the Illinois Marathon's half marathon race. Schrader finished 216th out of 358 male runners in the 20-24 year-old division. Jessie finished 129th in the Women's 20-24 year-old division with 458 female athletes.
