Posted by: Katie on: September 14, 2011
I’ve decided to countdown the last 26 days until the Chicago Marathon with 26 reasons that I have for running a marathon- some may be a stretch- but just humor me please! 
And for the purpose of giving reason #1 that much more weight I am going to add the .2 to my #1 reason.
So today is 26 days. Drum roll please! My #26 reason for running a marathon is……
Fun swag in a box arriving at my doorstep yesterday!

WOW
neat!! we don’t even have that kind of swag for our marathons here in Vancouver 
keep at getting ready for it though!

It may not totally qualify as “swag”. I am sure my entry fee for the MMRF power team covered this- also sponsors names are all over it! But it is quite generous!
. It’s fun being part of the team!
