On Sunday, October 11, 2009, 45,000 runners will take to the streets of Chicago to participate in one of the world’s major marathons, the 2009 Bank of America Chicago Marathon. I will be one of those runners.
The countdown to the Marathon begins, I have 20 weeks of training that starts this week. I am nervous and worried that I won't be ready in time. October in Chicago will be hot and most of my training is going to take place here in the hot humid weather of Virginia Beach.
I will also start to get more aggressive with my fundraising. My goal is $3200.00 and we are now at $2373.00. I would like to exceed that goal and shot for $5000.00.
If you have not donated please consider doing so. For those of you who have donated, thank you for your very considerate donation to this cause.
As I get closer to running in Chicago I will keep posting my random thoughts and training progress.
