Another year, another decade of runDisney! 2020 brings the promise of new experiences, challenges, and ways to prove to yourself that anything is possible. What better way to ring in the new year than runDisney’s Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend. Speaking from personal experience, it is the race of a lifetime. I am so excited for everyone who has been preparing and training for months. It is YOUR time.
In the spirit of preparedness, double check your packing list against mine: the Will Run for Disney official WDW Marathon Weekend Packing list.
Well, friends. I did it! I am officially a marathoner. After holidays, a sinus infection, a crazy winter storm, and other obstacles potentially deterring me from my goal, we managed to get to Walt Disney World safe and sound, and I was able to fulfill my long-time goal of finishing a marathon.
This is it. After months of training and miles, we’re one week away from the 2018 WDW Marathon!!! I am so excited. And nervous. And frustrated. I’ve been suffering with a sinus infection and have been off my feet for over a week. It’s been quite the taper- more like sudden halt! It’s kind of freaking me out. But I know the most important thing is to get well, and fast. It doesn’t help that even if I was feeling well it’s literally zero degrees outside. Hmph!
I shouldn’t complain. I need to find a treadmill and get in some miles just before I leave. I hope no one else is in this position! At least I am not injured, and I am feeling much better.
I can’t wait to get to Walt Disney World and pick up my bib at the expo. I’ll be ready to toe the starting line and run this race. At this point, I am laser focused on finishing, and whatever time I get will be good enough for me!
I hope everyone is getting excited and is thinking about what they will be packing! I know I am. 🙂
Happy New Year, everyone and see ya real soon!

Hi Friends! Believe it or not, we’re less than ONE MONTH AWAY from the 2018 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend – 25th Anniversary – Presented by Cigna. I am so excited! The bulk of our training is winding down- I have just one more “scary” run until my taper, but otherwise I am feeling great! I just really hope this strength is with me on race day. For now, here’s what my training week looked like:
