We had a great time in Chicago... went shopping down Michigan Avenue, drove down Cicero Avenue, hung out with dear friends, rode the L to downtown chicago, and tried to run the 2007 LaSalle Marathon. Key word here, tried. It was 90 degrees on Sunday and the humidity was extremely high. Let's just say we cooked the 14 1/2 miles we actually got through. There was no water at the aide stations, we had to buy our own. Finally we made a decision to stop running the race as it was just getting hotter and without water stations we could depend on, I figured it was a bad idea. Right about then, the race officials called off the race. We did meet some great people along the way, and David stopped at mile 13 for his frappecino from Starbucks. They were overly extatic that a partner was running the race and had stopped in for a drink! I doubt we'll go back next year (unless the entry fee is waived) for the race, but we'll definately go back to see our friends!
PS. David did find SuperDawg, at Midway airport, and had a yummy hotdog.
