Matt's Training

My training has consisted of working out with the Mendon High School Varsity Girl's track team that I coach.  I have been doing my speed work with them and then doing my distance runs on the weekends.  One downfall I have found is that the coach can't keep up with his runners and now have to get over pulling an abdominal muscle, but fear not I will be healthy soon and back to my 10 mile runs. I am looking forward to running in Chicago with Louise, Sara & Garret. Stay tuned for more posts.

Welcome to our blog!

This is a blog by Team Alec so you can follow us as we train for the Chicago marathon this fall. As of now Team Alec consists of Matt Dague, Louise Bakker, and Garret DeNolf and myself (Sara DeNolf).  All of us will be posting as we train over the next six months.

As you probably know we are all running on behalf of Alec for an organization called "Run for Our Sons," a charity raising money for research and support of families impacted by Duchenne's Muscular Dystrophy. For more information on this charity or how you can get involved by supporting us financially you can do so at our fundraising page here.

We look forward sharing our training with you !
