Marie Vitello: After tackling Heartbreak Hill, she's ready to kick multiple myeloma's butt

After completing her fourth Boston Marathon, Massachusetts resident Marie Vitello thought she’d give endurance running a break. That is, until she received an e-mail from her boss about an opportunity to run the Chicago Marathon on behalf of the MMRF. Vitello works at a biotech company that supports a drug that is in trials for multiple myeloma treatment, so she is well educated on the disease. Still recovering from the Boston Marathon and its brutal Heartbreak Hill, she signed up for Chicago. It will be her fifth marathon.
