6 weeks in, going strong.

So it was about 6 weeks ago that I first posted about my plans to run the Disney Marathon. I’ve been following the Jeff Galloway plan that Disney put out and I’m very proud of my progress. Usually in things like this I get excited at first and that tapers off and I lose interest. This is different. I’m excited to see how far I can go. At this point I’m not too concerned about my pace, despite the fact its right on the line of the guidelines Disney gives. Most of my runs are around 16 minute paces, but I also have been doing most of my running out in the heat and pushing a stroller. This past week was my longest run coming in at 7 miles in just under 2 hours, 1:55. I felt pretty rough the next day but was doing fine a day later. So, bring it Mickey. I’ll be ready!
