Hello All -
So I decided to run the Chicago Marathon for someone other than myself this year. As many of you know, my girlfriend (and probably the toughest lady I know) suffers from a serious pain disorder called RSD/CRPS (worse than dealing with me on a daily basis). She used to run marathons on a regular basis and is no longer able so we got hooked up with Dare2Tri (check out their site - http://www.dare2tri.org/) about a year ago to help her get back into the craziness of Marathons and Tris. I went to a Dare2Tri event last year and saw what strength and determination looks like. Dare2Tri is Paratriathlon club that helps folks with physical disabilities such as amputation, spinal cord injury, spinal bifida, cerebral palsy and the visually impaired participate in Triathlons and other related activities. So long story short, please help by floating a few dollars their way and you can laugh as I suffer thru another Marathon. Thanks!!
Pete
