Well, it’s almost time, Friends. Just a few more short days. We are all waiting with rapt attention as we wait for . . . The weather report for Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend. Wait, what did you think I was talking about? Yes, it’s that time. Where we Run Disney enthusiasts start to stalk …
I didn’t become a runner until I was 38 years old. I was 39 when I ran my first half, 40 when I ran my first marathon, 45 when I ran my last one (AND I MEAN IT THIS TIME), and I ran my 21st half marathon just 2 weeks ago. Oh, and I already …
This morning was a step down week in my training plan. What is a step down week? In a nutshell, you run less after running more. Last week’s long run was 5 miles and next week is 6.5, but today was just 3. JUST THREE MILES. So I leave for my 3 mile run, it’s …

It’s the most wonderful time of the training! (OK, so maybe training and bling really don’t rhyme but …
I am way overdue for an update on my training for the Run Disney Star Wars Half-Marathon, The Dark Side! There are rumors a’swirling that this race may be going away (or re-themed) which makes me super sad since I love the theme and the time of the year, and was hoping to make this …
I was trying to add up how many Run Disney Walt Disney World Marathon Weekends I’ve participated in and I THINK it’s 6. I’ve missed the last two and have felt serious FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). So much so, that just today I pulled the trigger on my early entry option through Disney Vacation …
