Holy Shit, We Ran A Marathon!!


Adam and I are official marathon finishers!  We ran the Walt Disney World Marathon (yep, all 26.2 miles of it!) on Sunday, and are super happy to say we survived!  It was really neat running through all 4 Disney Parks, as well as the Richard Petty track and all the fields at Wide World of Sports.  I finished with a time of 6:11:38, Adam finished with a time of 6:42:07.  There were over 26,000 runners that started the race, but only 19,970 finishers.  I finished 13,572 and Adam finished 16,445, so totally not even last!!  We are both pretty sore, but really surprised how good we feel, overall.
Here we go!

Smiling on the course is always good!
Am I almost done?

Hey!  This could possibly be the best day ever!
26.2 miles in those ears!

Crossing the Finish Line!
Look at those medals!
You sure did!

Me too!

Official Royalty!

We had a great time at the Princess Half Marathon at Walt Disney World this past weekend!!  We made it through, and both feel pretty good after, always a bonus!  Mellissa finished with a time of 02:50:08, 7,710 out of 20,751, Adam had a time of 03:07:30 and placed 11,423 out of 20,751.  Our Whales on the Moon team placed 51st out of 100 Co-Ed teams.

Princess' in Training!

Hey all, Adam and I have decided to begin training to run the Disney Princess Marathon in February of next year!  It is quite a bit more distance than either of us have done to date, but we figure we have a good long time to train, so we should be able to make it!  Wish us luck, and if any of our runner pals want to come be royalty with us, the more the merrier!  You can check out the info here.  Run Disney Princess Marathon Weekend
