Wanted to show a picture since we are doing this series on our training for the 2010 Chicago Marathon. This is us at the 2006 Chicago Marathon…and the beginning of The Running Couple!

One of our most received questions is, “Where do you put your iPhone/iPod when you run?” We feel sorry for these people as we often go into a 10-minute synopsis on one of our favorite running gear accessories, the SPIbelt.

Well…last week was a tough week for us to get in our scheduled workouts. We had a very rainy week here in Texas and a lot of social events late in the week. Needless to say, we didn’t get all the workouts in. While it may be easy to get down on ourselves, we are [...]
