Tom thanks for sharing. Congrats on your Chicago Marathon. Are you still running??? Although maybe not in this weather.
I also know the long way to run feeling. I just finished my first Ultra Marathon, the 50 mile JFK50.
I also have been a long time supporter of World Vision. Among the finest out there. Currently we are supporting children in La Paz Mexico.
Running Trains and Trains Running two of the great pleasures of life.
Tom
