CHICAGO -- The winner of last weekend's Chicago Marathon is back on his feet and collecting his medal.
Robert Cheruiyot of Kenya finished the race feet first last week after he slipped on a logo at the finish line and cracked his head on the pavement.
Cheruiyot, who also won this year's Boston Marathon, was treated for a concussion and some bleeding.
