The podiatrist fixed me up with a shot of cortisone and some shoe inserts, so I am good to go!  We have a busy weekend with corporate events and birthday parties, so we will be doing our long run, 20 miles, on Sunday.  I wish we could make the 20 miler along the lakefront in Chicago on Saturday but there is just not enough time.  Getting excited for taper down…although I don’t feel that I actually hit enough miles, Alex is ready!  We will be having a ball and raising funds for The March of Dimes at O’Hare Airport next week for a 5K.  Can’t wait!  We will joined by 3 of our 4 kids…keeping it in the family!
