My sister & I ran the Disney Wine & Dine Half Relay, it was awesome! I'd looked forward to running a Disney race for the past 5 years and it did live up to the hype.  This race was especially fun cause afterwards there was a post race party at Epcot with a free drink and $10 credit to use at Epcot's international food festival.  The food was delish, not your standard amusement park stuff.  They also had a few rides open for us- we rode Soarin' & Test Track.  Along the course they had characters and different entertainment and magical disney music, kept things exciting.  My sister ran the first 4.8 and I ran the last 8.3.  I averaged 8:51 according to my Garmin.  We came in right at 2 hrs which we were happy with considering this was our first half relay.  In hindsight I wish I'd kept a better eye on our overall time because I'm sure I could've brought us in under the 2 hr mark...next time :)

Since I moved to FL in July, I have met up with a great group of running chicas.  We meet 2x a week for sculpt and 2-3x a week for runs.  Most are in my ward and all are lots of fun! Melissa is our fearless leader who is a certified fitness instructor and kicks our booty while providing great entertainment :)  I love these girls! Emily is a great motivator who always asks me if I want to run just a mile more, or just 15 min more...she finds new routes and gets me out the door on extra days- she's awesome! We usually run over the causeway, but have also done a couple beach runs.  Some are training for the Disney Marathon or the Half in Jan.  I haven't registered yet ($$$$...), but hope to soon and will see how I feel at the end of Nov. whether I register for the half or full.  I'm averaging 15-20+ miles a week depending on how long our Sat. run is.  We usually only get in a quality long run every other week. I'm going to try to be more regular about my FRB posts!

Happy Runnin'

5.5 flat miles with Emily around beach.  Garmin wasn't charged, not sure of pace- under 10:00.

Crazy run.  Was supposed to be 13 miles, but we lost a runner along the way.  Retraced our route and couldn't find her.  So we ran back to a car and drove the route 2x, still couldn't find her.  Since it was dark and she was alone & missing we got really concerned.  We called the police.  Overreaction? Not sure.  The alternative was to just let her be missing??!! Ugh.  Ends up she took a short cut off the route to try to catch up with the rest of us.  She got in a nice long run, while myself and another friend had an andrendaline pumping morning worrying about her.  Lesson learned: run with a phone next time (none of us were carrying one). Geesh.
