New York Marathon 2 weeks away

In two weeks, I will run the New York Marathon for the charity Familial Dysautonomia (FD) community.

I am still taking donations. https://tinyurl.com/4cwk2wtx

Last weekend, I was in Chicago for my friend’s son’s wedding.
We had a great time.

. My husband and I arrived in Chicago on Saturday. Besides the wedding, while we were there, we exercised nonstop. We both hate shopping, touring museums, and other touristy stuff, so exercise is what we did.
I am glad I have a spouse willing to do nutty stuff with me and deal with my antics.

Saturday 10-mile walk. My husband was a great sport doing the miles with me.
We walked the Lake Front trail.

Sunday
45-minute swim in the hotel pool
I had the pool to myself.
strength training hotel gym 45 minutes
20-minute gentle bike ride indoors
Wedding time 4-10 pm (PARTY)

Our biggest whoops was my spouse’s legs were sore after the ten-mile walk because he wasn’t trained for it. The ten-mile walk was nothing for me but something for him.

LOL…I forgot that not everyone can walk 10 miles easily.

He prefers strength training and high-intensity 45-minute classes, not steady cardio for 2+ hours. He is in good shape, but he hates marathon running/ training.
Once again, the wedding was terrific. Thanks for inviting us. My husband and I had a fun time in Chicago.
