48.6 Miles Done

January 13, 2014 | Disney, fitness, runDisney, running

Well folks I did it! Four days, four races and 48.6 miles later I have 6 new medals and very sore legs. Thanks for all the encouragement you all showed me on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Your virtual cheers helped! We are enjoying one last day in Disney today then we head home tomorrow!

Here are a couple pictures from today:

    To be honest I’m terrified of trying to finish my first 13.1 in February, so the thought of running 48.6 is beyond me right now. But, a year ago I wouldn’t have dreamed of 6 miles let alone 13.1. So, I won’t say never, just not anytime soon. Congrats! I’m envious of how you never even look tired. Love the costumes.

Don’t Forget! Father’s Day is just around the Don’t Forget! Father’s Day is just around the corner, and my daughter and I have been on the hunt for the perfect gift for her dad. 💙 (ad)

She wanted something “cool and strong like him” — and we found the Victorinox I.N.O.X. Automatic at Reeds Jewelers in Knoxville… it checked every box. ✅

This isn’t just any watch — it’s crafted in Switzerland, designed to handle anything life throws at it, and looks amazing doing it. Basically, it’s Dad in a watch. 😉

🔹 Built in Victorinox’s own Swiss factory for ultimate quality
 🔹 Strong, sleek design inspired by the iconic Swiss Army Knife™
 🔹 Anti-magnetic quartz movement = always reliable
 🔹 Available in 41MM Automatic or 32MM Quartz

There’s still time to find something meaningful (and practical!) for the guy who does it all. Check it out locally at Reeds in Knoxville — and maybe bring the kids along to help choose. 🥰@victorinoxnorthamerica

Just when we thought @countrycascadeswaterparkreso Just when we thought @countrycascadeswaterparkresort couldn’t get any better… they unveiled Braxton Beaver’s Shipwreck Bay! 🏴‍☠️💦

 Our daughter had a blast exploring the pirate-themed indoor waterpark, complete with thrilling slides, a zero-entry splash pad, and the expansive Bayside Lagoon for endless swimming fun. 🐠🌊

 While the kids play, parents can unwind in the spacious  warming spa. You can even rent a cabana or order food! 

And with comfy rooms, delicious dining options, and even duckpin bowling on-site, it’s the perfect family getaway any time of year! 🛏️🍕🎳

It’s been one month since my Virgin Voyages crui It’s been one month since my Virgin Voyages cruise and I’m still confused why no one is cooking gourmet food for me, or bringing me cocktails all day long. 😩

I had a super comfy bed with real cabin space, a tablet to control the lights, TV and curtains (I felt like a queen), and don’t even get me started on the food—every meal was ✨a moment.✨

Now I’m home reheating leftovers and wondering why my house doesn’t have mood lighting and a spa within walking distance.

10/10 would get spoiled again. 💅
