My 2011 Chicago Marathon race recap, part 2

While I shared race details yesterday, I couldn’t call my recap finished without thanking some people; not just for Sunday, but for the past year. I’ve had a lot of help, a lot of love and a lot of support from many people as I tackled my goals. I mentioned in Part 1 that for... Read more »

My 2011 Chicago Marathon race recap, part 1

Never give up. Three simple words that I chose months ago as my personal mantra. Little did I know how important they really would be yesterday. I set a lofty goal for this year’s Chicago Marathon. I wanted to run a sub 5 hour marathon. After last year’s lofty goals, I believed I could do... Read more »

Nine days to go until the Chicago Marathon

I’m excited! Phil talked about where he’s at nine days out and shared an awesome video, which I’m sharing as well! Last night I got a run in after work. I met Ben, a fellow dailymiler, and we ran for a bit. It wasn’t the greatest run but I got some miles in. As I... Read more »

On my run this morning I thought about who I'm thankful for...
