And you are really SLOW…no wonder you don’t want to run another one.

really-you have/had to question yourself whether you would run another half or race again? Then a runner you are NOT.

Cool shirt!

And anyone that can run that distance deserves to bask in the glory.
Fab post, by the way. Love the way you express yourself and do things in a healthy way that people can aspire to.

[...] Disney Princess half marathon was my first race ever and, on top of that, I received the invitation with only about five weeks to [...]

Thank you for taking the time to discuss this, I sense strongly about it and love learning more on this subject. If possible, as you gain expertise, would you mind updating your webpage with additional data? It’s particularly helpful for me.

I’m terribly shy and awkward in social situations, I’m sorry I couldn’t come up with anything to say when I saw you during the race, but you totally passed me somewhere around mile 11! You must not have been struggling too badly Or maybe I was more than I realized.

I wish I had gotten to meet you last weekend! What?! You mean in the 14,000 other princesses around we should’ve found each other?! We’ll have to try harder next time;-)

I L-O-V-E-D the Princess Half: I loved the course, I loved the girl power goin on, I loved feeling strong after beating breast cancer, and I LOVE the sah-weet medal;-)

I DIDN’T much like standing in the freezing cold temps for what seemed like ages until the start of the race. My husband asked me why I didn’t bring my UnderArmour gear…I said, “Who brings ColdGear to Florida?!?!” It was a brutal wait…but so so so worth it.

I remember thinking towards the end of the race that I was sad it was almost over because I just enjoyed it so much. I.feel.strong. Empowered. Love it. (Obviously I’m still on my post-race high!)

I wish I had thought to tell you about the iPod thing. My first half about 3 years ago I was the nerdy one who followed the rules and was instantly disgusted when I was in my corral with 5,000 other people who seemingly ALL had their iPods:-Z It was good, but would have been so much better with music. So when I read the rules this time I pretty much disregarded that part;-) I know it makes a huge difference. Do this: plan to run one more half marathon with tunes…hehe;-)

Sorry we didn’t get the chance to meet up, but like I said maybe next time;-) You did great, Princess!!

Way to go on the half marathon! Interesting about the cold morning. I always thought that the Disney marathon would be hot! hot! hot! which I hate the most for running. (Guess it depends on the time of year, eh? Go figure! )

anyway, I salute your brazen disregard for the race numbers! I’m a slow runner, but I still like the rush of the numbers.

This was a fabulous post. I love the way you process things in such a healthy way both mentally and physically. Such an inspiration!

The best part to me was not just that you knew you needed some motivation but that you knew how to get it. You absolutely rock and you can do anything!
