In Training!

I am currently training for my third endurance race: a 10K & half-marathon in one weekend! Join me on my crazy journey to the finish line!

She's At It AGAIN!

So, almost 18 months after I completed the 2011 Disney Marathon, I am now registered to complete the 2012 Disney Wine & Dine Half-Marathon!  I know, you're probably thinking, "Why is she doing this again?" or "What trouble has fallen upon another soul that she feels she needs to do another big race?"  Oh, don't worry, nothing like that has happened.  This time it's all about me.  I saw videos & pictures of friends completing the race, and I felt like, "Well, if I can finish a whole one, I KNOW I can finish a little half-marathon..."  There are other benefits besides the fact that it's shorter than my last one:  (1) it's a night race--no getting up at 2:30 am, (2) I'll get to run with my mom's best friend, Mary, (3) it ends at the Food & Wine Festival at Epcot--run & then eat?  I'm all over it!  So, I'll be continuing to run a little at the gym from now until early July, then it's back to "training camp".  As my son likes to say, "It's on!  It's on like Donkey-Kong!"
