First off, big ups to all my blogging friends who have contributed to my Chicago Marathon Charity Fundraising Campaign.
Check out these amazing bloggers: Run Colby Run, Helly On The Run, Outdoor Running Adventures, So Very Slightly Mad, & Charissa Running.
You guys truly rock my wheelhouse! I promise to get you your personalized thank you pictures/videos soon! Maybe they’ll even look like this…
You guys have really helped me get closer to my goal digit!
I’m super pumped about the Chicago Marathon. It’s really helped inspire my runs this week. Starting with a 12 miler with WRRC.
The next day I did some hill repeats on my run. Why not?
And of course, I have to follow it up with yoga to help keep me centered and strong.

I can’t spell gud, butt at least I finally kept my tongue in my mouth. Yeah, it’s Snapchat – add me: piratebobcat
What else is inspiring this week – oh yeah, watching the Boston Marathon! I especially loved stalking tracking all my friends who were there. Y’all did some amazing times! Including my man Logan, who rocked a 2:31! Yes, that’s a full 26.2 in 2:31!
So there it is. Rockin and rollin! Keepin on and remaining calm. Bring it on, brah!
How bout you? Watch Boston…or were you there? What’s inspiring you? Any suggestions for the personalized pics for those bloggers?
PS. If you’d like to donate to my fundraising campaign, you can do so HERE. Or watch a short video I made telling you why HERE.
Wasn’t at Boston but had several friends who ran in. I’m a middle of the pack runner! My family and friends are my inspiration, always. ❤
I hear ya. I always like looking to friends for inspiration. We’ll get to Boston one way or another!
Hehe someday right?!
Holy crap, your friend ran a 2:31 marathon? That’s faster than my first half time! Amazing.
Ha, yeah, he’s fast. And I know his goal time was much faster than that!
I definitely streamed the marathon. I’m from Boston and would love to be able to run this someday, but I’ve got a ways to go. Maybe when I get to the next age category in a year 🙂
I hear you! I used to go to Boston monthly for work and I loved it. Consider it a 3rd home. We’ll BQ one day!!!!!
I will be donating soon!
Thank you in advance!
I got into Chicago, so maybe we can run some miles together in the Windy City! Will be counting on you for a matching donation to my charity for NYC. 😉
That would be awesome! I’m hoping to meet up with a few other blogger friends there too! Holla! And I’ll donate to yours too – but don’t expect too much – our toddlers are like a money vacuum! Haha!
Thanks for the shout-out. It was my pleasure! Can’t wait to hear about you rocking that Chicago Marathon for a great cause…oh and also how could I pass up a personalized picture?!
No, thank you! I’m going to run all over the Chicago Marathons face! And yes, personalized pictures are on the way!!!
2:31??? Damn!!!!
I was out there in that stupid pouring, freezing rain but it was frickin’ AWESOME being there!!
You’re lucky!!!! I need to be there one day. I’m working on it!!!
a little off topic here, but Chicago dogs = OMG SO GOOD!! yuuuuummmmm. I’ll donate just for that! haha as long as you promise to eat one while you’re there.
Hahaha, OK then, I will for sure eat one! Thanks again for donating!!!!!!!!
You look like you were born to carry babies (outside womb). LOL.
And you seem dehydrated, from the looks of that tongue. Hope you’re drinking nuff in the crazy running.
Why thank you. 😉
And wait, are you serious or joking? I try to stay pretty hydrated, am I not?!?
Wasn’t joking. Who knows…maybe it was the lighting on the shot that made your tongue look extra pale.
Well crap. I hope it was just the lighting. Now you have me all worried. I keep looking at my tongue, but I don’t know what I’m looking for!
LOL. LOL.
I love “Run dun. Yoga ova” – this made me laugh!
Haha, thanks for picking up on that! I need to make a t-shirt.
So incredible you’re already at $850!
Wow- your friend is inspiring!
Thank you! I’m even closer to the goal now!!! And yes, it’s inspiring to have some fast friends!
