While I was away in Italy some changes to the runDisney Wine & Dine Half Marathon were announced. Wine & Dine was my very first race EVER in 2011 and I’ve run it each year since… …and in 2015 (despite all the weather delay craziness!) I was able to share it with Jason for the … Continue reading
Are you ready for a TON of photos?? While this may have been my slowest marathon to date (thanks to my knee!), I may have PR’d in character photos! This was my 5th year in a row running the Walt Disney World Marathon and while I was nervous about how my knee would hold up … Continue reading
Wow these recaps have taken me awhile to write! We stayed in Florida until Wednesday after the races, then when I got home my sister ended up in the hospital for a few days (she’s doing fine now!) and then of course I go and get sick myself (I always do after a marathon!), so … Continue reading
I just wanted to post a quick update since the last I shared on the Goofy Challenge was my concerns about my knee pain and not being sure if I could finish (or even start!) these races. Well, if you don’t follow me on social media – I DID IT! Somehow my knee held up … Continue reading
After doing so many runDisney race trips I feel like I’ve finally perfected my race packing list! A few years ago I wrote out my go-to packing list and trip after trip I keep pulling out this crumpled piece of paper when it’s time to pack. So, I (finally!) thought – why not share the list … Continue reading
This will be my 5th year in a row doing the Wine & Dine Half Marathon, it’s actually probably one of my favorite races (maybe only second to the Walt Disney World Marathon), which may have something to do with the fact that it was my first race EVER back in 2011! Since I’ve done … Continue reading
If you’ve been around Live Run Grow for awhile, you probably know that the runDisney Wine & Dine Half Marathon was my first race EVER and that I sort of consider it an anniversary. Back in 2011 I went from being a total non-runner to choosing this race as my goal while fundraising in memory of my … Continue reading
Back in November I wrote a post sharing some of my favorite holiday gifts for runners and in it I mentioned Project Repat, a great company that takes your t-shirts and magically turns them into an amazing, fleece backed blanket! While I love all of my race shirts and wouldn’t want to part with them, … Continue reading
A few weeks before Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend I received an e-mail from Cigna, the Marathon Weekend sponsor, inviting me to a blogger event they were hosting…a cook-off! The event was held under a large outdoor tent at the ESPN Wide World of Sports, it was a great spot, except for it was FREEZING … Continue reading
Alright people, get ready for photo overload because this post got away from me a little bit – I just had so many great pictures from this race and I couldn’t decide which to not include! If you’ve been reading Live, Run, Grow for awhile first of all – THANK YOU! Second of all, you probably … Continue reading
