What Motivated You to Join The PAWS Chicago 2009 Marathon Team?
We enjoy raising money for and donating to PAWS Chicago. We ran the PAWS Chicago 8K last year. My wife is on the PAWS Chicago professional board, and we adopted our dog Brody from PAWS Chicago one year ago (May 2008) after Smithers, my dog of 15 years, passed away.

Is this your first marathon?
Yes, this is my first marathon, but I have ran many halfs.

On mile 20, what will you think of to keep going?
Brody and that I have only two 5Ks left.

Why PAWS Chicago?
