Patrick Runs Disney

     Hey gang! And Happy Halloween! Today's post won't be too scary...beyond thinking about running a half marathon...that's pretty frightening.      Over the past 19 weeks, I've been training for the runDisney Wine and Dine half marathon, (November 3rd 2019) and I figured this would be a good time to chat about how I prepare for a runDisney event.
