For CJ Albertson, balancing being a dad and a coach/teacher at @Crush_Athletics with his marathon training can be challenging at times. But sometimes, he says he just has to accept being a "functional zombie." 😂 Albertson was the top American at the Chicago Marathon in seventh in 2:08:17. 🎥: flosports.link/4dQAjea #ChicagoMarathon
