I congratulate each of you for participating and choosing an active lifestyle. We also hope others not only notice but also choose to take action. Every year I meet runners who have chosen to jettison their sedentary lifestyles, choosing instead to regularly exercise. I’ve met young children and adult children running with their parents, even some grandparents. People who thought they could never complete a 5K, 10K, half or full marathon but who set a goal and worked toward achieving it. In the end, everyone wins just by participating. Christie Clinic has provided quality health care to residents of east-central Illinois for nearly nine decades, and we love to see people being active and helping to improve the health of our communities. Since its inception seven years ago, the Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon has entertained 123,500 active participants and 21,000 volunteers. Together, we’ve raised more than three quarters of a million dollars for charity and added more than $60 million to the local economy.
