Well, it happened. As far as the temperature is concerned, it’s winter. I HATE winter. The onset of real cold of course means that it’s hard enough to convince myself to take a quick outdoor walk; a full run outside is out of the question. I’d like to try to keep my days active, though, and there’s the WDW...

Trip report time! I’ll be covering my November 2016 trip. You can read all posts in the trip report here. Onward! Ugh, leaving day. Always hate the last day of a WDW trip, no matter its length. It’s just so demoralizing. But I’ve given myself the wonderful guarantee of being registered for two more runDisney races in the future! I was...

Trip report time! I’ll be covering my November 2016 trip. You can read all posts in the trip report here. Onward! I was lucky enough to have a bus to Pop waiting for me after the half, and I was back in my room and showered in no time flat. A choice was presented to me: did I want to make...

HE IS THE TERROR THAT FLAPS IN THE NIGHT HE IS THE WINGED SCOURGE THAT PECKS AT YOUR NIGHTMARES WHEN THERE’S TROUBLE YOU CALL DW...

Trip report time! I’ll be covering my November 2016 trip. Onward! Hello and welcome to Jenn’s TREAT YOURSELF 2016! Close enough. Let us begin. As is tradition, I slept terribly the night before my flight, but I nonetheless bounced out of bed at 4:45am because such is the power of Walt Disney World. My dad dropped me off at...

HEY! THIS isn’t Walt Disney World! Boo. Sad trombone. Yup, I’m back. It was a whirlwind three days and a great half marathon, and the only thing that kept me from bursting into tears on the Magical Express was the promise of the WDW Marathon in January and the Dark Side Half in April. Keep hope alive! If you’ll...

TOMORROW. Tomorrow morning I land in Orlando and my long weekend in Walt Disney World begins! I’m not sure how well the Wine & Dine Half Marathon can be expected to go, but I haven’t run at ALL this week so hopefully my muscles have bounced back? A bit? Maybe? When I initially realized I’d be making this trip...

I don’t know. Maybe I jinxed myself. But I can tell you exactly why I posted about my marathon PR bid during the Marine Corps Marathon last week: I thought for sure it was going to happen.
