Well, what an amazing weekend I had! Although it was cold, I had such a great time finally getting to experience Marathon Weekend! I’ve loved all the RunDisney races I’ve done, but the half marathon on Saturday was definitely my favorite so far. I soaked in every mile, got some great photos, and overall just had a blast! And my Dad was able to spectate at the TTC and on Floridian Way, and he too enjoyed the morning.
Then my sister ran (and finished!!) the Marathon so my Dad and I spent the day at Epcot yesterday spectating and waiting for her. We got a great spot over the bridge in France and got to see her come through at Mile 25. What an incredibly amazing, motivating experience! Everyone looked great and I am now firmly planning to move forward with my plan to run a Marathon this fall. It won’t be Disney, but the Disney Marathon is definitely on my list to go back for sometime as soon as possible.
Also, @DopeyBadger, were you wearing an orange top yesterday? I’m pretty sure I saw you from a distance come through past Spaceship Earth about 15 minutes before Epcot opened. I was in the crowd waiting to be let in and saw someone who I was almost positive was you.
