The Queen Intends to Rule the Bridges

Recently crowned Queen Elsa running through Walt Disney World

Recently crowned Queen Elsa running through Walt Disney World

 

Whew!  I didn’t think the Princess Half-Marathon was going to be THAT tough.  I never knew how slanted and steep those exit ramps and overpasses were at Walt Disney World.  Those slants, and bobbing and weaving through fellow princesses, and stopping and going did a number on my left leg.  I was fine for the first nine miles though.  Had to run/walk the last two.  Ugh.  It sucks because lately I’ve been running so well.

After a massage the day after and two yoga classes later,  I’m good to go for the next race…  The Gate River Run 15K.  I am so nervous about this one.  I had to modify my last training calendar.  My left leg needs rest, and I used my last 5K to calculate a new pace.  We’ll see how it goes!  Wish me luck!
