Water station mayhem at Chicago Marathon

In this video, you'll see a picture of runners encountering a water and Gatorade station without water and Gatorade. My early skepticism on reports that some of the aid stations ran out of fluids has evaporated.

It's a chilling video, especially the bit with runners dousing themselves in fountain pool at the Peggy Notebart Nature Museum. Scroll down two posts, and you'll see in the top photograph the same location about a half hour earlier in the day.

Hat tip to Running Jayhawk, whose Chicago Marathon, and that of her husband, was significantly less enjoyable than mine.
