Saturday, August 28, 2010. I have started running.and I do use that word rather loosely as I am SO slow. I decided I needed something to get me out of bed in the mornings and consistently exercise.

THIS photo is what many do the race for! Yeah I get red in the face when I exercise.and I have to say, my legs have NEVER looked better! This is what running does for ya.

Monday, February 28, 2011. Disney Princess Half Marathon - Part 1 Princess Palooza. Both the PT and the sports doc told me to take it SLOW and just listen to my body. No reason while I could not try.BUT to be prepared to stop if things didn't feel right. I began to periodically have visions of myself in the race and a tendon snapping. And visions of being picked up by the van for those who can't make the minimum pace. The SWAN is a GREAT hotel! Your races are not cheap! I was happy to see Amy and I would...

Tuesday, July 5, 2011. Disney Princess 1/2 Marathon - Post Race PAR-TAY. After I got back to the lovely Swan Hotel, this place is awesome, I took a very cold bath to soak my legs and feet. It felt great. I then took a shower and discovered the chafing on my back under my bra.OUCH, its a painful way to find it! But that and one blister on my foot were my only race injuries, not bad at all. We went into Norway's Akerhus and got our picture made with Belle. We ate - I had the house special meatloaf.I wa...
