Making my comeback! A return to the Chicago Marathon.
It's been nearly five years since I ran the Chicago Marathon in 2019. Two months after that race, I ran my last marathon in Sacramento for the California International Marathon. That experience of back-to-back marathons burned me out. That led to my decision to take a 'brief' break. Then the world shut down in 2020. Well, it's been long enough. I could see my body changing with age, and I continued to reminisce about the good times when I could run for hours and was at least 20 pounds lighter. So this year I'm getting back to Chicago. And what better way to return than to express my appreciation for the group that held my hand and supported me through a decade of Chicago Marathons. For this I am running to support the Chicago Area Runners Association. For this return I need to raise $1750.00. As I progress on this adventure I will gradually be updating this blog to share my progress. Please check back regularly and consider supporting my marathon efforts here: http...
