Hi Everyone,

Funny thing about running a marathon: you do all the work to complete one, and by the time everything is said and done all you can think about is the next one. In this case, it's October 11th, 2009. I finished last year in 4:38, so now I'm going to try to beat that time by as much as possible. I don't think we'll be qualifying for Boston just yet, but all things have to move one step at a time.

(Little marathon joke there. Feel free to chuckle as much as you like.)

As I did last year, I'm also going to devote my marathoning efforts to raising money for the AIDS Foundation of Chicago. Those of you who pitched in last year helped me to raise over $2200 to support research and care for those surviving with AIDS. I can't thank all of you enough for your generosity and enthusiasm.

Since I'm shooting to break one personal best, perhaps you'd like to help me break another? Please donate by clicking the link you see here. All donations are tax-deductible, and support a number of resources throughout the Chicago area.

Thanks again for your support. I'll see you at the finish line.

--Toby
