once again, i hope oprah doesn't eat me.

Check it out interweb. The FWR sure is signed up for the 10.10.10 Chicago Marathon! _______________________________________________________________

Registration Confirmation for:

Dear Rebekah,

Congratulations! You are now registered for Bank of America Chicago Marathon. Please check the event's official website for updates: http://www.chicagomarathon.com

________________________________________________________________

I'll be heading to Chi-Town again this year, but this time to run, not volunteer. Pretty sure this has already been a pretty fantastic morning! Between one last gym date with my girlfriend who is moving to California later today, and registering for Chicago? This Monday has nothing on me.

I'm just glad Oprah will still be occupied with her show this year, gives her less time to hunt down delicious and unsuspecting tourist/marathon runners. My cousin Rachel sure did sign up as well. We both got in as soon as we could. Ohhhhh this marathon is gonna rock my world! And now I can't wait for October.

In other news, I have a 10K race, killer weekend spent with my lovely girlfriends, and my Winter Park stories to still post about at some point this week. I'll get to it eventually, because sorry, Chicago won out over all of that today!

See ya there! I can't wait. It'll be my first. I'm hoping for a blogger and/or podcaster get-together. Gonna talk to Kevin, host of The Extra Mile podcast, and see if we can't organize something.
