Chicago Runs for Boston

Mon, 15 Apr 2013 19:44:57 -0500

It’s hard not to be horrified and saddened by events like this Monday, April 15th in Boston. It’s hard not to give into the pain and cry your eyes out. And as runners, it’s hard not to do something.

So let’s do something, Chicago.

Let’s honor our fellow runners in Boston by raising funds and running in their honor.

Step 1: Donate $1 or $5 or $26 or what you can to the Red Cross.

Step 2: Get some friends together and Run on Monday April 22*

It’s simple. It’s symbolic. Let’s run and show our support for Boston.

*if there’s enough interest, we will organize a very unofficial Lakefront run at 5:30pm on Monday April 22.

Mesmerizing.

photojojo:

Either Philip Barlow refuses to wear glasses or he’s just really good at painting out of focus scenes.

Wethinks the latter.

Jess made amends for slapping the mime of my face. I give thanks for the skinny chin she drew.

Do yourselves a favor. Go to Whole Foods. Buy a pack of 365 Dark Chocolate Mini Grahams. Put them in the fridge. Eat them 3 at a time out of a tiny dish. #decadence. (Taken with Instagram)
