It was a balmy 30 degrees today in Chicagoland and I actually went running! But more on that in a moment...I need to ask you all something.
Can you help me say thank you?
Let me explain: I have decided that I am indeed running this race for a reason and I've decided that I am going to raise money for American Family Children's Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin. Why? Let me give you a brief explanation:
3 years ago my dad and brother were in an accident; my brother was taken to this particular hospital and during our extended stay the staff was so kind, caring, knowledgeable, and made us feel like that my brother was the most important person there. When he moved from ICU to another floor the great staffing continued through the whole floor. They helped not only my brother but all of us and I want to say thank you-hence my raising money for them. I'm aiming to raise $500 dollars, I'm hoping for more but honestly any amount of money raised will be amazing. You can check out and donate on my page at http://connect.uwhealth.org/site/TR/Events/General?pxfid=5700&fr_id=1072&pg=fund If you want to know more about my reason-feel free to contact me. Also all donations are tax-deductible!

As for my run today- it was freezing and AWESOME! I ran three miles in 34 minutes! That was my 5k pace! And now I have no excuse for not running during lunch. Also, Champion Power Core leggings are amazing. They are so warm! I'll go into more detail about winter gear when it becomes more of a thing.

Until next time, keep running strong!
