princess half

kerry and i flew to florida on friday and met kelly, kristen and kelly's friend linda in orlando...the mission?  to run the disneyworld princess half marathon!  if you remember...in january the girls ran the tinkerbell half in california...so, if you run both races in the same calendar year...you get a medal for running 'coast to coast'...so that's what the girls did...it was a quick but fun trip...friday night we walked all over epcot, probably twice, looking for this pasta party that the race puts on...we found it...they had just closed down!  oh well...dinner was someplace else...saturday morning we got up early to go to the tangled 5k...that was for me...so we all did that...i had to walk it, because while training i wrecked my knee...but, i could walk it...it was all through epcot...again....fun to do...we came back to the hotel, changed and went to the magic kingdom...it was a fun day...kelly had a magic pass (she has an 'in')...it let us get fast passes immediately...so we went on all the rides without waiting...that was fantastic!! we went back to epcot...walked to the end of the park again for dinner...then, a not so early bedtime...the poor girls had to be up at 3 am!! they had to catch a bus to the race...it started at 5:45 am...i didn't go until 7...lucky me...i arrived at about 7:30, just as kelly was finishing...linda was already done...then, kristen came in and then kerry....i'm so proud of all of them...they did a fantastic job...after the race we went back to the hotel and the girls collapsed...slept for a few hours...had a long lunch, then a long plane ride back to california!!! a fun, but quick trip!!!
