If you have been following me for a while you know that running is a big part of my life. I love the challenge, the spirit of the race and the way I feel when I cross the finish line. I never imaged that the race bug could take me this far into my running career (life). I have to say the distance changed me for the better. The first race I ran I didn't believe in myself or my future... With every mile I complete my life gets better. I now know that anything is possible..if you work hard and believe in yourself.
This Saturday night I will be running my 20th half marathon in Disney. I can't help but smile knowing that I will be celebrating this major accomplishment in the most magical place on earth.
Running the distance has allowed me to travel, as well as meet up with friends all over the world. I will be meeting my Nashville friend Corinne, as well as my Canadian friend Tracey Friday evening. This will be a great weekend to laugh, cry and relax with great friends. Memories will be made I am sure.
I can't wait to bring this medal home with me... Disney does so many things right but I think there medals are my favorite I am also excited to complete my first night race ever. I am a little nervous about the 10 PM start time but I have faith that the energy and excitement of the race will keep me going.
Look for race recap next week :) Happy Tuesday Friends
