Chicagoans: Chicago Half Marathon Info The race starts tomorrow, Sunday Morning Sept. 13 at 7:30 AM CST! We’ll begin at Jackson Park, essentially run North on Lake Shore Drive to 31st Street then loop back south…come out and cheer on Team Nun Run…we’ll have white T-Shirts on that say “TheNunRun” on front and have a cartoon of a running nun on back!

If you haven’t yet, please consider making a donation to Fund NUNRUN!
Thank you so much for all of your tremendous support and prayers over the past few months…and, Fear not! Even after tomorrow…the NunRun is NOT OVER! I’ll keep working and praying…and hopefully running–literally and figuratively–events to raise the money needed to pay off my student loans so that I can serve God’s people on the West Side of Chicago as a Francsican Sister!
Above all, I praise and thank God for His love, mercy and generosity! Know of my prayers for you…and I’ll be offering up some of my run for your intentions! God bless you!
Good luck tomorrow, Alicia! I’m going to try to get there to see you start before I cantor the 9:30, but if I don’t, just know that Brian and I are really rooting for you!
Dear Alicia,
Congratulations with your initiative!
