Race Recap! Rabbit Run 5K

April 11, 2023April 11, 2023Leave a comment

Oh, dear little Rabbit Run! I now feel a strange affection for this unassuming 5K race. It was as sincere as Linus’s pumpkin patch, and what it got for its efforts was a great big smack across the face from Old Man Weather. Is Old Man Weather a thing? Whatever; what I’m trying to say is RAAAAIN. Or, in...

Well, My Race Plans Failed – Now What?

March 10, 2023March 10, 20232 Comments

A few weeks ago, I posed a question – did my racing reach exceed my running grasp? Could I race two PRs in as many weekends? The answers, we come to find out, are: 1. Yes. 2. No. Drat. THE BEST LAID RACE PLANS Run Oak Island Half? A comedy of errors. As for the Wilmington Marathon? More generalized...

Bringing My Race To Its Knees

March 23, 2022March 23, 20221 Comment

After my (kinda, sorta, really yes but also no) triumph at the Run Oak Island Half Marathon, I vowed that I would make my next half my sub-2. I’ve got one coming up in a week or so. It was gonna be my race. Now? I’m not so sure. Okay, to be fair, I was never really sure. I...

Run Oak Island Half Marathon Race Recap!

February 22, 2022March 10, 20221 Comment

Hello and welcome to a race recap that is in know way related to runDisney. I know, I’m surprised too. The last couple years, I’ve done the Wilmington/Wrightsville Beach Marathon as part of a week visiting my parents in North Carolina. This year, though, that race is the same weekend as the Princess Half. But when I saw the...

In Which Jenn PRs In The 10K Thanks To Southwest Airlines

September 16, 2020August 16, 2021Leave a comment

Okay, I know we JUST did a post about a training run of mine and I generally try to mix it up, but I had the BEST run on Sunday – all thanks to Southwest Airlines. Naturally I simply must tell you about it. So here’s what happened: I was going to get up at 8am and run that week’s...

In Which Jenn Swims The Parks Half Marathon

September 12, 2018August 23, 20212 Comments

“It’s a biathlon,” said man behind me to his running companion around mile 4 of the Parks Half Marathon. “We’re swimming AND running!” Indeed. Not that any of us could be surprised – the forecast had called for rain on the day of the Parks Half Marathon for at least a week. It had rained the night before. When...

In Which Jenn Recaps The Wrightsville Beach Marathon

March 21, 2018August 27, 20212 Comments

And now for a tale of marathon triumph! Comparatively speaking! My traditional fitful pre-race night’s sleep led to me bouncing out of bed before my alarm (still got to sleep until very nearly 5am which for a runDisney enthusiast is a tremendous luxury). I quickly dressed and gathered my stuff, then bolted down some breakfast and headed out.  Race...

The Fairest Trip Report Of All: The 2018 WDW Marathon

January 17, 2018August 28, 20215 Comments

Mini trip report! Read all the posts in this report here. In the immortal words of Salieri: And then, a miracle! I love the WDW Marathon. Just thinking about it fills me with joy. But in the middle of the race I thought it might be my worst one yet… and then it ended up being my best marathon ever. Let’s...

In Which Jenn Has An Excellent Parks Half Marathon

September 13, 2017August 30, 20212 Comments

I didn’t mention this half much in advance of my running it, and here’s why: I didn’t want to jinx myself. I’ve gone into races with fanfare before, bellowing about how I was going to crush it, and wound up crushingly disappointed. Which is guess is tangentially related, but not really what I’m going for. Well, the Parks Half...

Greetings, friends! I come to you as the humble bearer of a brand new personal record in the half marathon. Hotcha! But more about that tomorrow.
