Jeff and I will be running the Chicago Marathon on October 12 with Team in Training to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. We are running in memory of Marci's dad, Walter Pilant and our friend, Marilyn Williams, who both lost their lives early to blood cancers. We are also running in honor of Shelby, a thirteeen year old girl who was diagnosed with leukemia when she was only four years old.

What is wrong with this picture???



Uuhh, can you say HUMIDITY??? Kayla tried to take this picture of us outside after we returned from our 10 mile run tonight and the camera lens immediately fogged up because of the ridiculous amount of humidity (84%).
So we came inside, allowed the lens to clear up and she got this picture:

Don't we look so happy???? Really I was, just exhausted. We both ran good times and our babysitter had the boys in bed, which made me extremely happy. Having the energy to do something as simple as putting the boys to bed after a 1o mile run is a BIG deal! Especially when it is 9:30 pm, you are SOAKING wet with sweat and all you want to do is down a recovery drink and jump in the shower.
Note to self: Never leave so late for a long run that you end up on the pathfinder AFTER dark- - -creepy!
