It's Official....

We're Running the Chicago Marathon. Bruce and I signed up tonight. This will the third time I have registered for this race - and you know what they say the third time is a charm. I hope so because it's now up to $110 for registration the last two times I registered it was cheaper - like $35 cheaper. Well this is it, if I break another bone this year, I think someone is trying to tell me to not run.

So what does this mean, well Krista & family - prepare to become our cheering squad. Oh and Mom & Dad, don't think you are off the hook, I expect full participation. Megan - get your homework done early - you must also come out of your dorm room to cheer. Plus anyone else (the 7:11 crew) you are more than welcome (and/or required) to come and have fun in Chicago with us! Tony & Robert- we will be in GR for you - so well I guess what I am saying I expect the same. And Robert I don't want to hear anything about Chicago - you are coming and you are going to like it!!

I am excited, I don't expect to break any land speed records. But I am hoping to run about 11 minute miles - which would put me at about 4:45 for completion of the marathon. So here's to another summer of training... who's with me. Bruce - you don't have a choice you are in - we've already paid for your registration.
