I could go on and on and on about how great of a weekend Disney was and how much I enjoyed the Walt Disney World Marathon, but sometimes those memories are better just kept to myself and my family. (To address a point I brought up last week, yes my son had fun on the rides even taking on Space Mountain after just barely meeting the height requirements.)
It was a special weekend that I would have liked to have extended by another day, and I’d love to make going back — both for a vacation and for running — a reality. How that all happens isn’t something I’m going to lay out here. (The Disney Marathon will be 25 in 5 years, the year that I’ll turn 40 …)
After such a quiet end to 2012 and then kicking off 2013 in this awesome way, I’ve got to figure out what I want to do next with running. Lots of questions with no answers, but I’m very much at peace with that for at least a few more days.
For now, I’m still obsessed about this awesome medal. Here it is at work with me on Tuesday …

Savor the moment.
This will forever be a special time. Like Steve says savor it.
I loved everything about my Disney Marathon weekend and besides my great race my favorite part has to be spending time with my kids at the parks. Even if it meant tiring my legs out.
Congrats on an enjoyable race!
That is what I loved about my first RunDisney race, the TOT 10 miler. Just have fun. No worries about time. No music. Just run and take it all in. Can’t wait for my next one!
Someday I’d love to take on the Goofy Challenge - it might be my only reason to ever train for another full. But yes, like everyone said, savor those memories - especially Space Mountain with your little guy.
Congrats!
