well i officially have the runner's bug. two days after running the star wars half marathon - the dark side, i signed up for my third half marathon - the walt disney world® half marathon presented by cigna in january. i really had no intention of signing up during the early registration for passholders, but carpe diem …
dark side challenge
can i just start with, wow i ran 19.3 miles over the weekend. that's a sentence i never thought i'd say. i may be moving extremely slowly due to the soreness, but i completed the dark side challenge. from the expo to the two races, the whole weekend was truly amazing. it doesn't hurt that …
#starwars10k update
well, one race down and one to go. i can't believe i'm already half way (well i guess technically a third of the way) through the dark side challenge. and after today's race, it makes me so excited for my first half marathon tomorrow. now the strategy for the race this morning was to go nice …
health & fitness expo
one of the best parts about a race weekend is the expo. and runDisney's health & fitness expo didn't disappoint. then again, i probably bought out most of the stuff there...just kidding. however i did spend my fair share at the expo today. from official race merchandise to running accessories, you can virtually find anything …
t-1 day to the dark side
i can't believe it, one more day until the star wars half marathon - the dark side weekend begins for me. i'm not going to lie, this weekend definitely crept up on me. even with all of the training i've completed, i always think i can do more. i guess that's the former athlete in me. …
rose & crown
one of my favorite places in world showcase at epcot is rose & crown. always a stop on our adventure around the world, this pub offers a variety of beers (all from the united kingdom region of course) and some delicious grub. the 'chips' are always a favorite of mind, especially with a lot of …
cítricos
one of the perks about living so close to disney is the fact that we can just on a whim decide to head over to the parks on a random afternoon. and that's exactly what we decided to do yesterday. we started out at disney's magic kingdom, but with the crowd level being so high …
star wars bangles
as most of you have probably figured out, i'm a huge star wars fan. i absolutely love anything and everything representing this brand. so you better believe i was extremely excited when i found out that ALEX AND ANI® combined forces with star wars to create some new bangles. and i mean how could you not …
un-wine-d weekend
there is no better way to un-wine-d than with a wonderful glass of vin. and that is exactly what my longtime friend, kayla, and i did on saturday as we traveled the world (well, epcot). as we 'traveled' to the various countries, we ended up deciding on chefs de france in the france pavilion for lunch. it …
bonjour from epcot
as most of you have probably figured out, i hold a big place in my heart for france. i don't know what it is, but i absolutely love the country (maybe it's the great wine and bread, ha). but in all seriousness, i've visited the country three times and each time i go i wish …
