I am finally home and settled from my fabulous "Mom’s Gone Wild" trip to Disney for Marathon Weekend. I am so happy to be home but I also have to say that it was such a great time. We laughed, ate, had drinks, some ladies ran and we mostly just enjoyed ourselves.
This was a very inspirational weekend for me. I have friends who ran the 5K, the half marathon and the full marathon. I even have one friend who ran the half marathon on Saturday and then ran the full on Sunday. No easy task to say the least. Every time I saw these people on the race course I would cry. It was so amazing to see them working so hard to achieve a goal. They were dog tired by the end and mostly running on adrenaline but they did it. All of them.
We would choose points on the course where we could be to wait for them so that we could see them and hand them supplies like water, Biofreeze, bananas and mostly encouragement. Every time one would come running up we would all yell and scream to urge them on and then when they ran off we would cry. It was amazing.
We spent time sitting around Pop Century one night just laughing and spending time together. It was like a bunch of sorority girls hanging out in a dorm. I ate at some amazing places. My favorite would be Jiko in the Animal Kingdom Lodge. Amazing food and terrific ambiance. I would do this one again for sure even at the expense of Le Cellier which was my old favorite.
This weekend really got me thinking about setting goals and achieving them. Not resolutions because those are so darn easy to break but goals. I am going to spend some time tonight thinking about what I want to achieve in 2009 and when I know what they are I will let you know since it is always better to write these things down.
