Marathon Woman

While Dad contents himself with twice-a-week weight workouts in the fitness room downstairs, Mom is running three times a week - with her sights set on the 2010 Chicago Marathon.

Yes, a marathon.

She most recently ran three miles on a track yesterday, and tonight she registered for a 5K (3.1-mile) road race to be held on Sunday. Dad and the kids will be out there cheering for her, as apparently we often will over the next year.

Mark Oct. 10, 2010 on your calendars. Go Mom!
