Let's see...really sore quads with 5m to go, a picture at every mile with a Disney character and still crossed the line at 5:06.....oh yeah and then there's the half marathon yesterday....gotta love the challenge.

TrevorC - 2011-01-09 4:36 PM Hey all!!
Just wanted to touch base and tell you I just finished the Disney Marathon.
It was crazy. I've never sped-walked an entire marathon, but I did it.
Funny story - they was this crazy couple who kept running past me just past every aid station.
The wife was super hot. The guy was this really short cyclist looking dude.



great job U2!!

sstucker - 2011-01-09 4:36 PM Hi folks,

I'm thinking of getting the VORTEX 3 FULLSUIT WETSUIT, will probably order it on Friday.  So far I've only seen good reviews, does anyone here have an opinion on this model?  The suit is within my budget after I use the BT $250 discount.

HAHA, thanks for all the insipres and e-mails guys.  Was a tough couple of days, but we survived, really looking forward to dinner and drinks tonight, my body needs it.

Completely different race than any we have ever done.  There were characters all over the place, we ran through all 4 parks today. Funny to see people lined up to get their picture taken with characters, or in front of cinderella's castle.  Not really a PR type of course, though it is pancake flat, just too many things to do while running.

Knee held up which I was really happy about, but legs overall are just beat up, looking forward to a week or so off.  There was a speed walker that every time we would stop would pass us, he was a dead ringer for Trevor, so the joke was we couldn't let Trevor beat us, this dude had a super exagerated speed walk going, arms swinging out super wide, and butt moving fast as he walked.

I'll post some pics later.  Sam is a saint, she took the kids to a movie while I napped, she came out of the races in much better shape than I did.

0 F , with windchill -18F.... I did my small bike ride in to work. Friggin cold. Hands felt like ice cubes after the 15 minutes. But hey, didnt pay $25 to park. We pay so much to park here. Unreal.
Crazy storm that hit here this weekend. Highways are closed. Blowing snow. People trapped in their cars.
Good times.

There is some mental toughness!

$25 per day is pretty steep...
