Yes, yes, yes, I MADE IT. I ran ALL 13.1 miles and finished very strong! 2 hours 40 minutes ... 5 minutes quicker than I expected! WOOHOO!
The morning began at 2:30 a.m. with the alarm clock ringing in my ear ... it was 38 degrees at 4:00 a.m. when we arrived at the staging area of the Epcot parking lot ... 38 DEGREES? HUH? Isn't this the same place that last weekend on the trail it was a blistering 80? Okay, so I wanted it to cool down, BUT REALLY!!! Okay, so sweating wasn't an issue. The drippin' nose, however, was!
But, a pair of Mickey gloves and a handkerchief, and I was good to go!
16,000 participants .. I finished 8,400th ... not bad for 50, aye?
Next, year, the full Disney marathon and in 2008 .. the GOOFY CHALLENGE (1/2 marathon on Saturday, full marathon on Sunday = 39.3 miles)
Okay .. on to training for the Gasparilla full marathon February 25, 2006!
