Good luck to all those running on Sun. For sure, I know that Berner, Mishka, Derek and Schneidr are running, although I am sure there are others I am missing. HTFU!
When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
Yeah. Good luck to all the Chicago and Steamtown runners this weekend!

I'm running 26.2 Sunday--just not Chicago. The Maine Marathon is kind of like Chicago, just a lot smaller.
