It’s officially 25 days until I’m in Disney World, and 27 until I run the Tower of Terror 10 miler! I’m getting very excited about it. My running shoes are getting a bit worn, so I’ll be buying new ones after the race. Then training will start for the Princess Half Marathon – well, the […]
ToT 10 miler training: 5 weeks!
I’m a little late in getting my post up about the past week, but better late than never, right? I’m glad that I was able to get all my runs in this past week, because we were on vacation Wednesday-Monday! But I managed to squeeze in two runs while we were away. One in the […]
ToT 10 miler training: 6 weeks to go
This was a weird week. I was not feeling at all well on Sunday. When I got up on Monday I was better but still definitely off. I wasn’t sure if it was allergies or something else – but then I felt fine by Wednesday! So it was a bit up and own for me […]
ToT 10 miler training: 7 weeks to go
This week was a pretty significant one for me in terms of running, because as you’ll see further down, I proved that I can actually do 10 miles! So the moral of the story is that I will survive the Tower of Terror 10 miler that’s coming up in just a few weeks. Monday was […]
ToT 10 miler training: 8 weeks to go
We’re down to two months before the race! I got to make my FastPass+ reservations this week, so I’ll be riding the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. Nothing left for Anna and Elsa, of course, by the time I booked, but I’ll meet them eventually! With just eight weeks left I’m feeling pretty good right now. […]
ToT 10 miler training: 9 weeks to go
Shhh. Maybe you noticed or maybe you didn’t, but yeah, I miscounted how many weeks til the 10 miler! Last week my post was 11 weeks to go and now it’s 9. I realized we’re actually one week closer than I thought, which is both exciting and scary! Week 9 was not too bad, since […]
ToT 10 miler training: 11 weeks to go
When you start running, it seems pretty simple. Get some sneakers, go out, and run. Maybe you need a water bottle. Well, as you no doubt know if you’ve been following the reviews on my blog, there are lots of different things that can help making running easier! One of the things I still am […]
ToT 10 miler training: 12 weeks to go!
This isn’t exactly running related, but it is health related. I recently purchased a subscription to Nature Box so I get sent healthy snacks once a month! I received my first box about a week ago and I’m really happy with it. I’m thinking about putting a review up on the blog, even though it’s […]
ToT 10 miler training: 13 weeks to go!
A little more than 3 months to go until the Tower of Terror 10 miler! But that aside, it’s actually time to start thinking about the next Disney race: because registration for Princess Half Marathon weekend opened this week for AP/DVC members, and will be on this Tuesday for everyone else. As you might know, […]
ToT 10 miler training: 14 weeks to go
This was a week of experiments for me. I decided to experiment with a few new things during my run, which you will see soon. The weekend run was another short one (2 miles), so I decided to take advantage of that and do something longer for Wednesday (also because I didn’t work until the […]
