Day 2

It's the end of Day 2 and this was a realy great day today. I walked with a co-worker from CA and we really moved today. We finished our 20 miles in about 7.5 hours. The walk was fun and there were lots of supporters out today.
At dinner tonight they did some recognitions and one in particular stood out. This recognition showed how committed people are to the 3 Day. There is a member of the crew that is on the road and everyone sees her multiple times each day as she rides the route watching for people in need of help. She was diagnosed with Breast Cancer two months ago and had a double mastectomy two weeks ago and was still here looking out for us this weekend.

The walk before lunch was a nice 11 mile walk through the north shore. The last couple miles before lunch were along Sheridan Rd and the houses were quite expensive. After lunch we have 10 miles to camp.

The Night Before Originally uploaded by ocnetgeek Arrived safely in Chicago around 3:30 this afternoon and ran into teamates in the lobby of the hotel. Our team dinner was once again a good oportunity to meet new team members before the walk starts. Morning will come early tomorrow as I plan to be on the first shuttle to opening ceremonies and that leaves the hotel at 4:45. Now going to enjoy a nice night in real bed before the next couple nights in tents sleeping on a cot
