Training for the 10K MagicRun

Yep a 10K instead of 5K MagicRun.
I hope I can run that.

Lot of training to do.
Small, short even longer runs I needed to do now.

I needed something to not lose my focus on running.
Because it was still some months before my RunDisney race.
I didn't want to go to a real startline because really I'm not a runner and not
fast enough to do a real race.
So to keep me motivated I did some Virtual runs and that was great.
Got some cute medals and did some dog jogs also for a medal.
It was working, I was motivated and everything went well.

My first long run, on the May the 4th be with you was 9,9K and the time was 1 hour and 33 minutes.
I was again proud of myself.
After that first long run I did my training between 2K and 8K.
Somehow if you do a long run, your done running, why I don't know but it happens, that 9.9K was my long run at that time.

In July I did a full 10K Virtual run and I got a Disney Castle kind of medal for it.
It was 10.2K and the time was 1 hour and 24 minutes.


Whoop Whoop my work paid of.
This is still my PR for the 10K in a training run.

I did some extra 10K's but never got that time again.
But I knew I could do my 10K MagicRun.

At that time I didn't know what to expect at the Disney race.
I wasn't really a member of any RunDisney groups on Facebook and if I was I didn't ask things or didn't really read stuff because I still was in that mindset of not being a runner and I was to slow.
So I was looking at the pictures of outfits.
I posted my runs on instagram and Facebook so I could see what I did.

A month before the race I had to work alot and got a bit of the flu.
So running wasn't all that good.
Worrying that was something I was good at, I might be the winner off that.
Oooo my what a mess, the stress, no running, lot of night shifts at work.
Never going to get to the finish line at Disney.
I had some Disney friends on instagram and Facebook that did some Disney races.
They told me your going to be fine, you doing great, your working hard, don't worry, it is a lot of fun and you will have fun, but I didn't believe them.
