Hi everyone!
Had a great trip despite the cold weather! Got a PB of 2:11:22 on my 1/2 but think I could done better if I had actually prepared for the cold. When I run at home, I'm out the door and running within a few minutes. I didn't think about dressing in layers and keeping warm for an hour before the race. I did some of my dynamic warm ups but was still frozen by the time we started. Thought about running up and down the corral but wondered if I would waste a lot of energy doing that (does it?). I got to start in corral A (thanks Kirstie & Ben ) and was still too cold to pull out my camera and snap a few pics of the stage and starting line - I did manage to wiggle my way to the very front before the start. That was fun!
Heading to the gym on Monday for my first training session post 1/2. And then training for my 30K starts. The weather seems to be on the warmish side - for Toronto anyway (especially after Disney ) I'm hoping it stays that way for the next month or so.
Dave - It was great seeing you again! DF and I were in the BW area a couple of times but I forgot to write down your cell phone so I didn't have a way of getting in touch with you. We have snow on the ground too but the weather above freezing! Hope your GPS is keeping you from getting lost! Enjoy the second part of your vacation!
Margie - Sorry you didn't get to finish the full! I heard the weather was freezing that day so I'm sure that didn't help at all. Did you figure out what happened to the Goofy bracelet? It's so dark at the start that you practically need a flashlight (or candle for warmth) when you go to the porta-potties. I'm bummed out to hear that you won't be able to do anymore Disney races
Sue - Congrats on your two PBs! That is awesome!!
Scott - Enjoy MK and Epcot! Remember to bring back some of the warm weather with you! Safe travels!
Lynn - Congrats on the half! I'm glad your knee cooperated and you weren't swept! I would be so nervous with the buses behind me! Good job Did the rainy weather keep people out of the parks today? I noticed there were a lot more people around yesterday - probably because of the long weekend? The airport was strangely empty but we were there around 6PM.
Jennifer - 3 stops in the med tents! Wow! Was it from the cold weather or from tight muscles? I'm glad to hear that you finished!
Kim - DF said thought about starting in G but was worried about being swept and time so he started in F. He said he looked back up around mile 12 (Epcot bridge) and saw he had been passed by you and Mike!
Jack - Congrats on finishing the full! I can't remember, was it your first? Any plans for future Disney races?
Connie - It was so great to meet you at Pop! How did you do on the half and full?
Phew! That's enough of a long post - Have a great day everyone!
