We checked out the Polynesian resort since that is where the crew came to cheer me on last year. Nice place...NICE PLACE...right there between mile 4 and mile 8. Oh YES! Then we went to Downtown Disney and I bought Boyce and myself matching personalize Family Team shirts -- in bright orange! :D We are going to get everyone else one when we know who all will be there... right now we will get Matt, Hannah, g'ma & g'pa C one :)
Ok, so after forking out the dough for matching team shirts - I figured we are in now! When we got home I signed us up and reserved our room - wow - expensive race and expensive rooms!! But after doing the full last year, I know that everything is done with the Magic of Disney - and it will be soooo worth it for my boy's first half marathon!!!
 | I worked on our new training program last night and printed it out. We begin next Monday! WHOOT!!! I added grid to it in highlighters so its fun and colorful - every week has its own color (that's, uh, 16 colors!). Its hung up on the fridge and all ready to go! I put 2 hours on the calculator so that hopefully if we train right, Boy can beat 2:00. I would love to beat 2:00 as well, but its going to take a little work - see below! |
My goals for a sub 2:00!
- I have to lose 10 lbs. Fat slows me down. I need to be a lean & mean running machine ;)
- Never skip a long distance, and don't take the "SLOW" part of LSD (Long Slow Distance) more seriously than the rest of it!
- DO the interval speed and hill workouts. On weeks of the hill workouts, we will do the LSD on Friday p.m. and take a Sunday morning run on the causeway.
I'm thinking about mapping a run from the dance place so that me and the boy can do our run while she is in her classes. Something to ponder...
Stay tuned for updates. I am going to journal his first marathon experience, since I know he wont. I hope he enjoys mommy's perspective one day ;)
