Hey I was wearing shorts for both races. :-) Saturday was clearly the nastiest to me. I was downright miserable when I got done, and then we had to stand there forever to get our baggage back. The rest of the day, we just stayed in the hotel, with no interest in heading out into the cold wet weather. Sunday was interesting in that it was colder temps, and the aid stations had ice at them due to the cups being thrown down, but otherwise I was dry and happy. I had a Team In Training coach on the plane on the way back, and she said the Disney folks said they had a record number of DNFs on Saturday. She said she had 2 of her folks drop out of the half, but none on the full. I ran with a big Mickey hat. Sort of looked like a plush top hat, with Mickey busting through from the back, and out the front. Pretty neat, and kept me warm. Wearing shorts was not a problem. I did wear a lot of layers up top. On Sunday I went from 5 to 2 during the race. |
