Around the World in ...

.... a day-and-a-half??? Ok, I may be slow, but even 38 hours is a stretch for me! It may have been possible had I waited in "E ticket" lines (a reference for you Disney oldies out there!) for rides at each park and stopped in for a character breakfast or two (since I was up at 2:30 am each day).
Since the Disney "runner alert" tracker didn't work as planned, you may not know how, or if, I finished the half and full marathons. They say a picture is worth a thousand words...and a well placed palm tree conveniently concealing my time is worth many more!
For full results (meaning...if you really want to see how fast or slow I was, you are going to have to work some for it!), check out the Disney Marathon results page at: http://disneyworldsports.disney.go.com/dwws/en_US/marathon/listing?name=MarathonEventListingPage2&bhcp=1

For the rest of the story (teaser: multiple wardrobe malfunctions), and many more pictures, please return in a few days. You'll have to cut me some slack as I try to get some rest. After all, a 38-hour 39.3 mile run for this near 40 year-old has left me exhausted!!!

HEY KEN - CONGRATULATIONS!

I'm sorry that I am a bit late in saying so and I haven't been able to check the blog as often as I would like, but you do deserve some recognition for the funds you have raised and your efforts to help others, as well as your celebration of your almost 40 years of life!

Keep up the good work!

Best wishes,
Jim Miller
