Well, Abby and my Mom went to Disney with me this past weekend for the Disney World Half Marathon. The good news is that I FINISHED!!! I ended up walking the last 3 miles because of right knee pain - but I did it! Now I have a time to beat for the next half marathon! Thank goodness we visited Epcot on the day before the race, because I was walking no where after the race finished!
We started Friday off with The Princess Storybook Breakfast, which was great! Belle was the main princess, but many of her friends showed up as well. We spent the day at Epcot and then headed to the Inspiration Dinner that night. There was a ton of noise and Mickey & Minnie to greet us as we walked into the dinner. Ethan Zohn from Survivor was at the dinner - he is currently battling Leukemia. He ran the 1/2 marathon as well. The dinner was amazing - I teared up a few times listening to the survivors and their families.
My mom took Abby to Magic Kingdom on Saturday while I hung out in the hotel room and ordered room service (rough I know). I will get some of those pics up later.
Overall, great experience! My medal is beautiful! My knee is still sore, but recovering. Can't wait to do this again. I am so proud of myself - and hope that my daughter will see me as a positive role model as she gets older!
