Akiko Tarumoto

Age: 31
Occupation/title/what you do: Violinist in
the Chicago Symphony Orchestra
What motivated you to join the PAWS Chicago
Marathon team? I recently adopted a dog (though not from
PAWS) and am a lifelong dog lover! I wanted a cause very close to my heart to
motivate me through the tough training.
Is this your first marathon? This
will be my second marathon--I ran New York last fall.
On mile 20, what will you think of to keep going?
My husband Nathan, my dog Fleur, and all the people who (hopefully) donated
money to help save the animals!
What obstacles/fears/challenges are you overcoming
by running the marathon? Training while travelling--one of my
big fears.
Why PAWS Chicago? I have a close
friend who recently adopted a dog from PAWS and had wonderful things to say.
How did you find out about the PAWS Chicago
Marathon Team? A CARA email.
