Off to a Running Start


Happy New Year!
2007 got off to a running start as I competed in my first half-marathon - 13.1 miles at the Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend. I don't if "fun" is the right word to describe the event, but it was a great feeling to compete again and accomplish new goals.
It's a totally different animal than gymnastics competitions...20,000 competitors compared to about 40....one activity for several hours versus 4 different routines lasting no longer than 2 minutes.
I was happy with my results until I learned that the winner of the full marathon completed double my distance in the same amount of time - Guess I still have some work to do.
