Walt Disney World Marathon 2019
It’s officially fall! Which means it’s officially marathon training season. WOOHOO! What does that mean in Florida?

I was a TROOPER.
Well, how do I begin this recap…where do I begin this recap??? I had a seizure 4 days before I was set to run a half marathon. My favorite half marathon because it’s Star Wars. Although this seizure wasn’t world shattering, it did rock my world. I didn’t completely recover from it. But I was…
