Disneyland Runs

I got an email this morning from Active.com telling me about the Disneyland 5K, 10K and Half Marathon runs. They actually go through Disneyland! That is really cool. I'm thinking about doing the Half Marathon. I'm not a good runner, but hell, it's worth a try.

Maybe the 5K too, if I can get Lori into it. It's in September, so there is a lot of time to train. And in the 5K I think I could do it with Megan just walking, semi-jogging, or up-shoulders, or in a running stroller. It's called a "Family Fun Run" so my guess is that a lot of young kids will be there. I'd love for Megan to have a t-shirt that she earned from some sport event early on in life.

My mom never shared her love of running with me, so I had to learn about exercise late in life. I like that Lori and I are setting an example for Megan by talking about working outs, going to workouts, and doing fitness videos. And Megan seems to like it too. She loves doing some of the yoga moves with Mom in front of the TV.

Speaking of Lori and fitness, she is doing awesome. She has moved into fourth overall in the 37.5 mile swim, and she has a 10+ mile lead on the nearest woman. She's doing usually around a mile and a half a day, and on most weeks multiple two mile swims, which is awesome.
