Yesterday I went in to Chicago to watch my brother run the marathon. What a crazy day it was. It was hot again, but thankfully not as humid as last year and I think the city was a little more prepared. I still think they should start earlier, but next year it may be really cold and I will probably say it should start later.
My brother did well. He was feeling a little under the weather and finished in 4:22, still faster than last year. We chased him around the city and actually saw him once. It was exciting to see thousands of runners and it made me want to be a part of them. I promised my brother I would run next year. I think I am going to have to join a running club though, otherwise I will never be able to get through long runs, plus I have no idea how to train for a marathon so a club will help me with that too.
I signed up for the hot chocolate 5k on November 2 in Chicago. The post race party is sponsored by Hershey's, nuff said. :) ha ha They also have a 15k that day. www.hotchocolate15k.com
Have a happy Monday and keep on running!!!!
