Thanks to Chris for alerting us all to the Double Bike match! World Bicycle Relief has found an anonymous donor to match donations 1-for-1 between now and friday noon, so if you give a bike, it magically becomes two! Or give half a bike and it becomes one! I wish we could thank this anonymous do-gooder, but doing our part will have to do. Hey, look, you can even watch the progress right there ->. Technology! Huzzah!
If you're looking to support a local cause in Chicago too, I'm a big fan of the work the Lincoln Park Community Shelter does. While most shelters provide beds, LPCS provides beds, job training, resume and application help, career and housing counseling, and housing placement assistance - a true road from homeless to a home. This economy is doing nasty things to families and every little bit helps.

I told Ben last night that I was going to take the week off from running, but after he left for work this morning I couldn't just lay in bed, so I went out for 3 without the gizmo. It wasn't that bad. Most weeks I'm at 15mi by now, but I'm at just 6. Off season, right?
