May 24, 2014 was a great day for a run in Chicago! Enjoy this look back. Once again, thanks so much to the many donors, family and friends who lent their support and good cheer, especially the amazing coaches, mentors, and staff of Team in Training Illinois. Together, our team raised over $37,000 at this event!
Here’s one of my favorite training songs. Donny Hathaway sums it up better than I ever could. 🙂
Stacey got this adorable pic of my hubby Alan waiting with us in the starting corral.
In the starting corral, a fellow runner named Cesar (center) noticed our purple TNT jerseys. He came up and said, “Thanks for all you guys do. I’m a three-year survivor.” This is what we run for, folks!
Army personnel handed out the medals…
…and the Navy handed out the water (of course).
Right after crossing the 50-yard line finish!
Wearing my tutu in the endzone at Solider Field!
I put this on the back of my jersey.
My awesome cheering section! Hubby, Mom, Sis, and Bro-in-Law.
