Chicago Marathon Success!

So I'm one of the lucky ones - I successfully signed up for the Chicago Marathon!!  They had a horrible time with the registration website and it is currently down and won't be open again for registration until at least next week.  There are still 15,000 spots left and I'm not sure how they plan to fill them because I know people are very upset about this.  Time will tell I suppose.  You can sign up for emails through bank of america for updates @ chicagomarathon.com/registrationupdate.

I would also like to say that I am running for a charity and I am very excited about it.  I am running for Team One Step for Children's Oncology Services.  My goal is to raise $1000 from now until October 13th.  This amount of money will send one child with cancer to camp for a week.  The kids are aged 7 - 19.  Team One Step started in 2011 with 33 runners, in 2012 there were over 100 runners, and i'm sure this year there will be even more.  I will have my own personalized website at the beginning of March and will post if anyone would like to donate.  The girl who started Team One Step, Colleen, is an inspiration and you can read about her story on the Team One Step website.
