26.2
I will be training for the Bank of America Chicago Marathon that will be held on October 10th. I am also a part of Team In Training and will be raising money for the Leukemia Society Charity. I am running in honor of one of my greatest friends and father-in-law, Butch Worrell that was recently diagnosed with acute Leukemia. I know that he will win his battle with this awful disease and anything that I can do for this great cause is the least I can do. If you want to make a donation please visit my site at http://pages.teamintraining.org/vtnt/chicago10/jsuttonvax
Check out Nick and I getting our heads shaved for Papa with our video:
I will keep you up to date with my training by posting my running log on this page: Official Marathon Training starts approximately 18 weeks from race day. Root me on as I train to cover the 26.2.
