Running? Me?

I did a bit of sport but that was only so I could eat anything and everything I wanted.
Later my food choices became more healthier but sport was still for the same reason.

I never had a goal to do a lot of sports and certainly not running, it wasn’t my thing at all.

I was on holiday (roadtrip through France) in September of 2017.

Enjoying the sun on the terrace at sports bar in Disneyland Paris.
So blessed, I love Disney and I love being in Disneyland Paris.

This trip was different, there are always a lot of people in Disney but this time the crowd was just different.
People walked around with transparent bags (you can't get those bags at the stores in Disneyland Paris).

At first, I didn't give it much attention until someone walked very close by the terrace.

And there it was, printed on those bags ....

RunDisney

My world stood still.

I knew about RunDisney but I thought it was only in the States.

So I said to my friend, I want to do a RunDisney run.

This was the start of my running journey.

It is the best start I ever made.

It took me a long time to call myself a runner, but now I know I AM a runner.

I'm not fast and I never cross the finish line first, I might be the last to cross that finish line but that's ok.

I just want to enjoy what I do and that is running.

Running has become so much more than just a training for RunDisney.
