Leaving my comfort zone ... one mile at a time.
Ohhhh yes my friends! It's time to start forming that 2016 Race Schedule.
So here's what the schedule has thus far:
Read MoreThe 2016 Freedom Run 5k happened to fall on a day where my training plan called for 10 miles... so it was time to get creative!
Read MoreThe joy of the virtual race is that you can do it anytime anywhere. I like to use the virtual races to reward myself on a good training run. A "race" doesn't have the mean a PR. Have you ever put your heart and soul into a training run - long run, speed workout, easy day, tempo - and wish someone met you at home with a medal?
Read MoreWhen I registered for my first half marathon in 2006, I had no idea what to expect. My dad committed to run every mile of it with me as we chose the Hyannis Half on the Cape.
I mean who wouldn't want to run in February in New England along the beaches of the Cape? I mean it sounds tropical. Right? ;)
Read More9.3 miles down (5k and 10k) and 13.1 to go to three more pieces of bling!
The Princess Half was the last leg of a Coast 2 Coast journey that started with the inaugural Star Wars Weekend in Disneyland. This race would net me 3 pieces of bling (half medal, Glass Slipper Challenge & Coast 2 Coast) and put my 2015 Run Disney medal total at 9!
Read MoreIf I am heading to Disney, I am running ALL THE RACES available that weekend. Well except the Kids Races - even though I would try if I could.
After the Frozen 5k, I was PUMPED for the Enchanted 10k. With the wife running as well, we were at the busses with plenty of time to spare. Unlike the day before when I was solo. :P
Read MoreNoooo I hate getting to the final race of the weekend! I had a blast running the Star Wars 5k and Star Wars 10k so I was ready for the Half to also not disappoint.
Read MoreWhen you run multiple races in a weekend one is bound to stand out as the best.
Well for me it was the Star Wars 10k!
Read MoreSelfies, character stops and celebrating 3.1-magical miles!
Read MoreTutu? Check!
Treadmill? Check!
NCIS on Netflix? Check!
With my race check-list complete, I was ready to tackle Gone For A Run's Four Magical Miles virtual race on Sunday morning.
Read MoreMy name is Dani and I am blogging out of the Boston Area. I started this blog in May of 2011 after suffering a back injury and subsequent back surgery in December 2011-January 2011. This space was to serve as a way for me to release the inner feelings I was carrying around and maybe help some other people going through similar situations: eating disorders, depression, weight loss and more.
