We came up the overpass and in the distance I could hear the screams from the green army man but I was beat at this stage. I had to walk. My knee was so sore! Rachel was like ‘come on you can’t walk by the Green Army Man’ and I knew this was true but I literally left it to the last possible...

Day 10 – Walt Disney World Marathon Sunday 10th January 2016 Part 1 – THINK OF THE BLING! I woke up to my alarm and a whole belly full of dread. I was super tired and stiff and just so NOT in the mood to run a marathon. We went through the usual routine of getting up, bathroom, bagel and...

After our pic we got back on the road and resumed our intervals. We lost quite a bit of a time with that stop and I also noticed that we now had a lot more walkers around us and the congestion was making it hard for us to keep our pace on our running intervals. I’m sad to say that we experienced...

Here we go! The Walt Disney World Half Marathon 2016! We set off with our usual intervals skipping the first walk break. I could already feel the difference with the huge increase in numbers on the course but we had the whole road to run on so we weren’t cramped and could easily pull off to...

I also just want to add that even despite my complaints from dinner last night and lunch today we were still having such a fun and amazing time.
