On October 18th 2023, one of my best friends and Cousins, Amy Baugh, talked me into participating in the 2024 Chicago Marathon on October 13th. It wasn't a hard sell.. I have been trying to come up with a new goal to remind myself that even though I am a year older "I can do hard things". We have been training for a little over a month and recently ran/walk almost 9 miles. To say I repeat my motto to myself daily is an understatement but it is also a testament to how far I have come in such a short time. Over the next year you will see posts and updates on our progress.. the goal is to finish this hard thing and enjoy the ride. The awesome part is that we get to raise money for charity in the meantime. If you can and want to donate, my company will also match to help the cause. Any help is appreciated! Love to you all...
