What
motivated you to join the PAWS Chicago Marathon team?
I
am passionate about dogs and cats, and I knew that the animals would help with
my motivation.
Is this your first
marathon?
Yes
On mile
20, what will you think of to keep going?
That there are only 6.2 miles left! I will think of my family running around the
city to cheer me on, pets past and present, and the people who donated to PAWS.
What
obstacles/fears/challenges are you overcoming by running the marathon?
Right
now, I am trying to overcome a sore knee. Otherwise, I just thought it would be
a fun way to meet like-minded people.
Why PAWS Chicago?
It was
divine timing. I love the ideals of PAWS and my girlfriend introduced me to the
notion of the organization and I was on board!
How did you find out
about the PAWS Chicago Marathon Team? The
second I saw the PAWS logo on the marathon website, I looked no further.
