By Karla Bruning It was dark. It was brisk. It was electric. I shivered in the 29-degree air, my teeth chattering as the sun rose over Chicago’s Grant Park. This was it.

Before Sundays race, my friend Jeff -- one of the co-captains of our Blue Ridge Relay team -- offered to run with me for the marathon.
