Disney Recap and Training Update

The team started training together on December 9. We meet on Saturday mornings at FitCorp in Boston to do long runs together. So far, I've done 8, 10, 12, 13.1, and 14 mile runs.

The 13.1 was not with the team, though. It was at Disney Marathon Weekend in Florida on January 6! To see my results, click here! The race was a really good time - there were Disney characters and bands along the route. The weather was a bit warm, but, still nicer than the (usually) cold weather in Boston! I finished the race in just over 2 hours and 32 minutes. I need to pick up the pace just a little bit to reach my marathon goal of 5 hours. There were photographers just outside of the Princess's castle in the Magic Kingdom. They took runners' photos as we ran through the castle. I am hoping for a nice photo!

The 14-mile run on January 27 was probably my worst run *every* . I was in bed for the next two days recovering. That can't be a good thing.

In better news, my knees feel good, and, hey, I can run 14 miles. GO, ME!
