Disneyland Half Marathon 2012 – Part 1

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Labor Day weekend - that means it's once again time for the Disneyland Half Marathon! We will be running it Sunday morning with 16,998 of our closest friends (and a number of Team AllEars teammates, as well). This will be the 7th Disneyland Half Marathon, and our 5th time running it. We really enjoy it. They have tweaked the parks part of the course again this year because Cars Land and Buena Vista Street our now open! So we'll get to run through Cars Land tomorrow. We've made a long weekend of it, and arrived on Friday night. We are using our DVC points to stay at the Villas at the Grand Californian (we love this resort). We're on the 5th floor, and this was what we saw when we arrived in our room Friday night! Grizzly Peak and a blue moon over the Tower of Terror. We can also see the Cadillac Range in Cars Land through the trees. It's a great location.

I’ll be honest, when I became a team member, I didn’t run. Not even a block, let alone 13.1 miles. I’m not sure … Continue reading "Positive Peer Pressure"

Due to my rotund shape, and generally lazy disposition, this was a statement far fetched … Continue reading "My first Half Marathon at Walt Disney World"
