Shamrock #5 on the books! This gets me a guaranteed entry into the Marathon. I had already decided not to run a marathon in 2018. I changed my mind about a week later.
The 2017 Chicago marathon was a nightmare for me and since then I had only run two 5ks. I didnt have much hope for this race but it went surprisingly well! I felt like I had a fighting chance to be a runner again.
As in the past Emily volunteered, Zuzana's husband Chris ran this as his once yearly race and Brian ran for the firs time since the marathon. We all met up after and headed to brunch where an excruciating 90 minutes later we crammed into a corner table at Bonefish and ate our brains out.
Until next year.
