So this past Sunday was the Chicago Marathon. I had never gone before, but we had a friend running in it this year, and wanted to show her some support. Me and Su parked the car and split up. She took a cab to Chinatown to try and meet up with Jenny, and run the last 5 miles with her. I on the other hand, took a stroll to around town since I had a few hours to kill. Everytime I walk around the city, I'm amazed. I mean, honestly, this place is fucking beautiful.

Finally, I walk my way over to the last corner of the marathon. I sit and wait while hordes of people finish the race. Big people, small people, short people, tall people. Seeing these people at the end of the 26 mile run is pretty inspiring. Its gotta be tough, and you probably have like the craziest battle inside mentally to quit. I know that this race passes right by Al's Italian beef. Even if either me, Steve, or Justin had the balls to run this thing, it'd be over right then and there at Al's with a large combo beef, hot peppers, and fries. 
Anyhow, I finally see Jenny and Su running up the street. I jump in and take some photos and we both cheer her on to the finish. Great job Jenny Jackabeezy we're proud of ya!

Hey Koob, what part of Italy are you going to? Are you doing a tour? J and I did a Trafalgar Tour and I'd highly recommend it... although I'm sure your arrangements are already booked. Let me know where you are going and maybe I can give you some tips.
