I signed up for a marathon
Like a proper one.
Granted, it's virtual; and entirely honor system. But, still. I blame the quilting community I hang out with on Twitch. ENTIRELY.
So, for 2024 Wine&Dine weekend (during Food & Wine), I'm on deck for a 5k (Alice in Wonderland-themed), a 10k (Beauty and the Beast-themed), and a half (Encanto-themed).
Some of the group will be actually running around Disney for the same races. I'll just be treadmilling it or wandering parks on the weekend, etc. Long marathoning, as it were.. The group is trying to work out Figment-mashed costumes for their runs, as they've all fallen into the Figment pool after being here last month for Princess.
I committed myself to doing the 5k in a homemade Stig costume (ie Stigment), should they hit one of the fundraising stretch goals they set. We shall see what comes of that....
This also gives me time and a goal to train for next year's Princess, which I've already committed to doing in person. Walking, that is. NO RUNNING HERE.
Worst case, I don't raise enough money to keep my spot; best case, I lose some weight?
Anyway...
Hell of a pivot to avoid the writers' block, I guess? Then again.. maybe Steve will get some ideas.. Or not. XD
How you doin' ♥
