Disney Princess Half Marathon





This past week was the princess half marathon. I had been looking forward to this race for a long time. I had planned my outfit. I had bought a skirt ( me in a skirt) and a tiara. I was ready. I had talked Solomon into running it with me. We had to get up at 330. 3:30 a.m. we had to be in the lot of Epcot at 420 and in our corral at 5:00. We had to walk over a mile to the corrals. We used the porta potty and sat on the highway ready to start. I was so excited. It was great to see the costumes and all the non traditional runners. We were in corral E so we had to wait. It didn't seem very long at all. WE saw the fireworks and we were off. We had a great pace and everything felt good. I was a little disappointed how crowded it was. We could not get any space or open. We ran into the magic kingdom. There were so many characters and things to see. We ran into the magic kingdom and saw Phil and the boys that was so great. Then we went to the castle. Their were trumpet guys playing. It was MAGICAL. It was also crowded and HOT. After the magic kingdom it was hot.. I was sweating like crazy. We ran till mile ten then I had a huge muscle cramp in my leg. I could not get it out. I tried to walk / run anything.. I was done. We walked in the last three miles and finished at 3:04 not at our goal but we finished. I would love love love to do it again. It was amazing. I still cant believe it is over. I loved every minute of it.
