So this is absolute nutsy bo-bo crazy town, but I’m leaving tomorrow to run the Walt Disney World Marathon, coming home on Monday and then heading out again a week from Friday to Disneyland to run the Star Wars Half. I still can’t believe it’s happening. Ever since I was a little girl and incredibly …
So we are almost to the finish line, literally and figuratively. We are just over one week away from the Walt Disney World Marathon! It’s been a long road filled with lots of hard earned miles and lots of pre-dawn get ups to do long runs in the cold when the rest of the world …
Today is a big day for me. My final long run is complete for the 2015 Walt Disney World Marathon. My final long run, for any race, is always emotional. I just find myself filled with gratitude. Not that this cycle has been without it’s struggles (quitting my job in the middle, just for one!) …

This was, in fact, a GREAT training week and boy did I need it!! The last several weeks (as those of you who have been following along are aware) have been fraught with blocked goals and missed runs. I was falling short on mileage on low on patience! But this week it all came together!! …
Me and My Running Friends! Aren’t we adorable;)?? I’ve now got literally dozens of Run Disney events under my hydration belt, and there are a few things that I wish I had known earlier. Most of what I discuss here I’ve said before in different ways and in different posts (you can go here to …
We are Star Wars people. The people who live in this home know all the films (almost by heart!) and have a deep love for all things Jedi. And yes, at our house the preview for the new film has been watched over. And over. And then let’s watch it one more time! I can’t …
