This was the second running of this little race and my second time on the course.  It is by far my favorite 5K!  So happy it was part of my 30 this year!

Top things about this race:

It was my mom and dad's first race ever! While I was on race 23 it was so fun to be with them.

runDisney.  I think next year, when I'm only trying to run you know 15-20 races, they might be the only races I'm signed up for.  The race was so fun with so many spooky, villain-y characters on the course.  There was even Prince John and the Sheriff of Nottingham!  MB and I had just watched Robin Hood so we were so excited. The course is so gorgeous -- set at the ESPN Wide World of sports, it's off road and through the beautiful woods.  It is by far one of my favorite courses.

My OUTFIT!  This was the first race I've done where I'd dressed up beyond a tutu.  I picked up an awesome red Team Sparkle Skirt (where I met Krissy!!), a Raw Threads Here Comes the Queen tank and my Minnie Ears.  It was so much fun.  I felt awesome.

By race, I obviously mean walk.  Since Jan and Paul were part of our racing entourage, we did a 16 min mile walk to our medals.  It was really, really nice to take it super easy before the 10 miler that evening.

ALEX!!  I finally met one of my online BRFs, Alex.  She was a course monitor at mile 2.96.  I literally leaped into her arms.  It was my favorite part of the race.  Oh and the medals.  That was cool, too.
