So I have a friend that is like Forrest Gump...she loves to run! She would run all day if she didn't have three girls to take care of everyday. Well she talked me into my very first run in May of 2008 which was a 15K. We had a good time and i enjoyed that run. This time around she talked me into a little bit more...about 4 miles more. We ended up signing up for a half marathon in Orlando at Disney. First of all Disney is such a fun place to run!!! You are entertained the whole time you run...very fun!! So we headed down on a sat. with our friends. Girls were running and guys were going to cheer us on.

Our driver
We had to be at the race at 5am and started racing at a little after 6am. To accomplish this we had to wake up at 3:30 so we could leave about 4:15...I am NOT a morning person, but did really well that morning.
Me and Forrest Gump
You start the race at epcot run through the magic kingdom and finish back at epcot. As you can see it was dark...AKA early when we got there.
There were 13,000 runners, can you imagine looking for a runner in this sea?
Hey I actually saw the guys!
And the guys found Forrest
Me and my faithful cheerleader!!
I enjoyed the race alot and will run another hopefully, although the last mile was tough!
