Introduction
Started really running last year and ran my first marathon at Disney World and then my 2nd just recently in Chicago. I love talking running and trading stories so I'm always interested in meeting more runners.
In what part of the Chicago area do you normally go running?
I live next to the lake off Diversey so I'm always on the lake shore path usually going south from Fullerton but sometimes north.
How far do you normally run?
My long runs are usually around 9min/mile but my weekday runs are a little bit faster depending on whether it's a recovery day or not.
What are your running goals?
I got out of the Marine Corps in May 2007 and didn't want to pack on weight as many of my friends were prone to do.
How long have you been running?
With the Goofy Challenge coming up in January it will have to be year round. However if it's cold and raining I pass.
What Jay is saying about this Meetup Group
If this group was organized by anyone else it would have potential. Jon has threatened to charge for meetups even when nobody goes to most of them. I hear the triathlon group organizes far more running events though so some of us have been moving that way.

"I'll be there again but I'm just taking a bus up from River North. I've seen you on this site plenty of times but we have yet to actually meet. Maybe Thursday, among the other thousands of people."
