What motivated you to join the PAWS Chicago
Marathon team? I wanted to bring attention to animal charities;
also, shelter pets have always been part of my life! My parents dogs Bella and
Logan were both adopted from shelter/rescue organizations. Is this your first marathon?
YES!
On mile 20, what will you think of to keep going?
Food!!
What obstacles/fears/challenges are you overcoming
by running the marathon? I never saw myself as an athletic
person. Through running, I have gained a lot of confidence in my athletic
abilities!
Why PAWS Chicago? I hope my
efforts will help more of Chicago's homeless animals find loving homes!

Marathon Team? Bank of
