I can't belive I really signed up for the Disney Half Marathon. It is official. I was so nervous just signing up. I can imagine I will be a wreck on the big day. On October 1 starting at 10:00PM I willl run 13.1 miles thru ESPN Wide World of Sports, Animal Kingdom, MGM and end up in the Worlds section of Epcot. Word of warning: I must maintain a 16 Miles per hour pace throughout the entire race. Anyone not able to maintain a 16 minute per mile pace may be picked up and transported to the finish. Oh dear. I better get training....

congrats on signing up....just as an fyi -- did you know that on the bike ride....if you are in the last third of the pack, they also put you in a van and drop you off 4 miles closer to the finish line????
ReplyDeleteWhy would I wonder about that? Me last? Actually I remember reading about some detour at a certain point in the race at a certain time. I had no idea it involved a van.
