 Run
Comments: PR!!!! by a little more than a minute, Oh and that PR was 10years ago when I was much younger..lol...so I think it should count as a double PR!? I felt great from the beginning and I just focused on running my own race. I tried not to "sight see" as much (my husband tells me I sight see alot and that it slows me downs..lol). For hydration I used my own Cliff drink that I mixed in the am and one cliff shot. My legs felt sore towards the end, but hey I was working them! I loved using the compression socks, I really think they help with my ongoing issue of cramping of my calves. What would you do differently?: Stop global warming so Florida can stop having these super cold weather spells!!! Push a little harder next time.  Post race
Warm down: Had warm oatmeal (yum), a banana, raisins and water. Waited for my friend and niece to finish. What limited your ability to perform faster: Brrr...cold Event comments: I highly recommend this race! so much fun and it is super organized. Last updated: 2010-01-17 12:00 AM

Keep up the good work I tell my wife she does too much sight seeing too. She had a PR at Gasparilla but missed her goal so she is doing Sarasota. She has turned into a monster. lol Good luck and keep training I know I am. |

As always all Disney World runs make you get up at "midnight" (ok, I am exagerating a little). Alarm went off at 2:30am!!! my niece and friend who were also running the race got up and we were ready to go have our coffee and breakfast. The hotel (Disney hotel) was awesome in that they had breakfast food available for the runners starting at 3am. I had my usual, coffee, bagel and peanut butter and just prior the race starting a small cliff bar. Took the bus to Epcot for the race!
Arrived at Epcot, very very cold (for South Fl) it was 39 degrees!!! we sat and waited until 430am when we decided to start walking towards the corrals, a 20minute walk which I considered my warm up. Arrived at the Corral and said Good luck to my niece as she was in another corral and off I went into my cow pen ;-)
