    Hi.

    Feel free to add me if you like.

    Been running for a few years and am working towards a Marathon this year and two big ultras next year.

    Hi! Good luck with your training! I am a month from running the Chicago Marathon. I started running last October, and have come to really like it! Add if you'd like!

    Good luck! Happy Running!

    I will start training this fall for the Boston Marathon in April 2017 (assuming I get in this week!). It will be my 5th marathon and my first time running Boston. Feel free to add me. And, as @dewd2 said, definitely check out the Long Distance runners group. Lots of experienced runners and good information there.

    Just curious as to how your qualified for the Chicago Marathon. Did you apply through the lottery? I am looking to do it next year.
