It has been two years since I have updated this blog! I know you are all waiting with baited breathe to find out how I did, or even IF i was able to pull a half marathon off!
Well, the exciting news is... I am still alive.
Here is an excerpt from my Disney blog giving the briefest of rundowns on how it went.
What's up Dorks?
Last time you heard from me I had just announced that I was signing up for the runDisney Star Wars Half Marathon. I may have said I was going to blog the training process for you and I obviously didn't do any of that, so I will just give you the run down of how training went.
Started out great!
Changed that way I had been eating and put in some miles on the track.
Realized that I like drinking and playing video games WAAAAAY more that eating right and exercising.
Stressed about it for 6 months.
Tried to weasel out of it.
Did it anyway.
I FINISHED!!!
I would show you a picture of me triumphantly crossing the finish line, but it was less triumphant and something more like wanting to cry, pass out and vomit all at the same time...
But I set a personal best and have officially announced my retirement from half marathons! Wooo! Yay Me!
NEVER AGAIN!!
Awww! I miss this! The sitting in front of my computer writing stuff that I am unsure anyone will read...
Boom! I did it! Barely... Couldn't walk for 3 days, but I got the medal, and that's all that really matters
Other things have changed since then and I have signed up for the Doctor Strange 10k in November of this year, so I am going to try to keep up with this blog and let you know how it goes!

P.S. 10k you say? Didn't you just do a half marathon... two years ago? I hear ya, but it will all be explained, in due time!
P.P.S. Aren't there any other pictures of you during this momentous event? Oh yeah, but they all look like I am in the process of a long slow painful death. MAYBE I will post one soon.
