runDisney's Walt Disney World Marathon Meet Up

We were fortunate to attend the @runDisney #WDWMarathonMeetUp on Friday, January 11. The meet-up featured celebrities Drew Carey and Joey Fatone, former NFL player Eddie Mason and running legends including Joan Benoit Samuelson, Bill Rodgers, Desiree Davila, Bart Yasso, Jeff Galloway and Dick Beardsley. We ran behind Desi and Joanie through Hollywood Studios. Malinda asked Joanie how her running has changed as she's gotten older. Joan describes her running in BC (Before Children) and AD (After Diapers) - and we can relate! ;-) It was an amazing morning. Thanks runDisney!

Jeff Galloway on Race Disappointment

I had the amazing opportunity to attend the runDisney Princess Half Marathon Meet Up with Jeff Galloway on Friday, February 24. 

During the Q & A session I asked Jeff, "How do you deal with race disappointment?" Here is the video that includes his answer to my question.

His advice helped me cope with my own race disappointment after the Princess Half Marathon. I hope this video will be helpful to you if you experience race disappointment.
