It's a tie
Chicken One
Chicken Two

They both start from the same line after 15 min chicken two covers 5 mi while chicken one only covers 2.5 but then chicken 2 lowers his speed chicken one stays at a const speed and it will take him 45 min to finish 7.5*6 while it will take chicken number 2 an hour hence chicken one will finish 15 min before chick 2
