race report: princess half marathon {2.21.2016}

Posted on March 30, 2016 by runswithpugs

Since this was Steph’s first half marathon, she (understandably) had an awful night of sleep. Not that either of us got much anyway, considering we had to be up in time to catch a 3AM shuttle. RunDisney events do not … Continue reading →

race report: enchanted 10K {2.20.2015}

Posted on March 17, 2016 by runswithpugs

With the first shuttle leaving the hotels at 3:30 AM, Steph and I had to be up early. Incredibly early. In fact, it was practically still Friday. I’m a morning person, but this was ridiculous. However, there was nothing to … Continue reading →

enjoying the accomplishment

Posted on October 14, 2013 by runswithpugs

The really nice thing about running a big race (or distance) like Tower of Terror is basking in the accomplishment the next day. After a well-deserved shower, I finally fell into bed at around 3:30AM. I knew that Little Man … Continue reading →

Posted on July 14, 2013 by runswithpugs
