Hi everyone! I'm baaaaack! LOL
Had a GREAT trip.. Here are some details:
1. The race - did the 5k, made out fine, finished with a chip time of 40:07 - not my best by far, but i was definately slowed down by trying to weave in and out of people, didn't expect that -- the positive thing, is for me, i only walked less than a 1/4 of a mile of the course -- jogged the rest!
Felt good after - very proud of my bling bling!
2. Meeting DIS'ers -- got to meet lots of friends! Met, Stacey, her DH, Susan, her DH, Stacey's mom, Corinna, Kim, Scott, Amy, and others!! That was so cool.. the support there at the race - both starting and finishing from fellow DIS'ers was unbelievable -- and soooo appreciated!!
3. The hotel -- the Grand Floridian is very pretty, nice pools, nice grounds.. etc. However, the concierge food is - um-- too "high class" for me..
Just not my kinda stuff - and i found the concierge people to be not as friendly i guess as at the BC or the Poly.. But, maybe that's just my opinion. However, all in all, it was a beautiful resort.
4. Weather -- it was HOT. Just about 90 every day.. but the pool felt great!
And, i guess it may have been the heat, or the feeling of getting my first finishing medal -- or maybe just the Disney magic, but we (me, my mom and my sis) all signed up to do the FIRST DISNEY Princess
1/2 Marathon in March!!!
I have NO idea how to train for this, and scared out of my mind -- but I WANT THAT MEDAL!!
So, i gotta do this!!
Back at work now, and tired, got in about 2am in the morning.. so off to Yoga tonight then tomorrow will try to figure out my training plan for the next 10 months!
