Oscar Mendez Jr.
Age: 27
Occupation/title/what you do: Web designer
at a community bank
What motivated you to join the PAWS Chicago
Marathon team? the challenge of running a marathon, the
opportunity to raise money to save the lives of homeless pets, my cat and friend
Opus and the free CARA training.
Is this your first marathon?
First, and hopefully is not my last. I would love to run one day the Boston
Marathon.
On mile 20, what will you think of to keep going?
God, give the strength to finish.
What obstacles/fears/challenges are you overcoming
by running the marathon? First having the discipline to train
every week will be a major challenge. I have never run more than half a
marathon, I'm a little afraid my body will not be able to take it.
Why PAWS Chicago? I been involve
with the organization for 4 years, I can't think of running for anybody else.
