22 weeks! Marathon is 5 months from tomorrow! 11 miles this morning, 70 degrees when I started. Felt good until I saw
@BuckeyeBama 's post! Thanks for showing me up!
Anyway, on to this week's Sundays are for Disney question:
How competitive do you plan to be for the marathon (or half or Dopey or etc.)? Is anyone going for a PR or is it more about stopping for characters, riding Everest, etc.?
I've been struggling with this once since I decided to run the race. I'm an inherently competitive person. In this case, I'm really just competing with myself to see what kind of time I can set. I've been training hard and want my race time to reflect that. This will be my first full, so a PR is automatic. That said, this is my first - and possibly only - runDisney race and it's not like you get to do anything like character stops and rides on any other marathon, so that's something to consider.
I guess my plan right now is to run the best race I can with minimal stops and just appreciate that I'm running through one of my favorite places on earth, but I'm curious as to how you all plan to approach it or have in the past.
