In October 2001 I ran in the Chicago Marathon with my father and my old roommate Alison- as I had been talking about doing before. This year I will be running in the Disneyworld Marathon on January 12, 2003 with Team in Training. I am currently trying to raise $3,600 for TNT which benefits the leukemia and lymphoma society. I am having a bar party at Durkins on Nov 9 from 7-11 (downtown Chicago) and it is $30 all you can drink- and it is for a great cause. You can email me if you are interested in donating any money, and I can provide you with all the information.
Hobbies
Basically any type of outdoor sport I love, such as kayaking, swimming, running, soccer, football, scuba diving, and skiing. In college the only sports that I really play are flag football and soccer.
I started scuba diving a few years ago, and have been diving in California and also in the US Virgin Islands. Although I haven't had the opportunity to go for a long time.
I also love to travel and hopefully one day will be able to go to Australia which is a place I have always wanted to go. One of my closest friends, Tove is going to school there so hopefully in a couple of years when I can make some money I will be able to afford a trip to visit her.
Hanging out with my friends and also my boyfriend are huge parts in my life. Without them I don't know where I would be. I know that I have been really bad about staying in touch, and hopefully I will get better.
