Lido Shuffle! 3:53 !!!!!!!! Sweet Home Chicago
Tuesday, October 13, 2009
I want to french kiss Chicago! Ran my first marathon at 3:53! Epic. Race temp at start was 33, finish around 45 I think. By the end of the race I couldnt remember my name, gender, or city of origin; but nobody could have told me how much fun this is. Next one is Fargo (hometown) in May. Sweet home Chicago. – Jeff J
