We trained for 18 weeks.
Ran 684 miles.
Raised a heck of a lot of money for @acsdnation.

And tomorrow’s #ChicagoMarathon? That’s @rghitchcock’s & my VICTORY LAP. 🎉

No time goals. No stress. Just 26.2 miles of FUN… exploring Chicago on foot, high-fiving strangers, petting all the dogs, soaking up every cheer, & probably crying (at least once).

A HUGE thank you to everyone who donated (you’re the real MVPs!), to @teamwilpers for our training plan, to @triandrungirl for yelling at me through my @nordictrack @ifit screen for the past 18 weeks, to @hit_the_mark_fitness & @zenmasterfit for keeping me accountable, pushing me to get stronger, & reminding me that marathon training isn’t JUST about running… & of course, to Bob’s knee surgeon for making sure he could actually join me. 😂

We wouldn’t be at this starting line without all of YOU!

Chicago, we’re ready for our 26.2-mile victory party! ❤️🩵

ps. To everyone running tomorrow, GOOD LUCK! And to everyone cheering… if you see me, PLEASE scream my name. I didn’t put those giant letters on my shirt for nothing. High fives & sweaty hugs are available upon request! 😂😜
