Call me foolish-but I've put down the money ($170...1/2 marathons are EXPENSIVE (and that's all of them...not just Disney)) and I AM OFFICIALLY RUNNING IN THE 2015 DISNEY PRINCESS HALF MARATHON!!!!!
I swear I was hyped just waiting in line to sign up for the race- I got online at 11:00 am and there were 100 people in front of me. IT WASN'T EVEN OPEN 5 MINUTES!! And then the website started freaking out- I had to redo some pages 3 times each (which RunDisney fixed as soon as they could and then I heard it ran much smoother after that). When I told my mom I was doing the race she had that tone of "Really?". I have a lot on my plate this coming year (wedding, wedding planning, auditioning, seeing family, seeing Mike etc) and I think she was concerned that I won't have enough time to do everything. And maybe I won't...but I know that I can. And I will.
Running at work is now even more important than it was before because now 3 of my running days are set up for me. I think that some of my coworkers are waiting to see if and when it stops but I really think that this is going to be a sticking habit for me; I don't share my lunch with anyone so I usually sat by myself doing nothing. I'd rather be running by the lake than stuck in a building (and I don't think anyone in my family thought they'd ever see me write that!) and maybe...just maybe I will inspire some people to get up and move. Small steps lead to big achivements and I guess I just feel that we can do more if we chose too. I am by no means the best balancer; I need to practice singing more, read more plays, see Mike more, visit friends more, and work on visiting family but if I can get even just one part a little more in sync I feel like all of that will eventually find it's groove too.

I hope that I will be able to add some theatre news to this blog again soon but at the moment I am just auditioning when I can and trying to train and plan a wedding (breathe right?). But at the moment (and a small cry session on Mike's shoulder who was a little bewildered) I am happy with where I am.
So- anyone wanna come to Disneyworld with me?
Until next time, keep running strong!
