I’m channeling The Bitchy Runners tonight and joining in on Whine & Wine Wednesday! (Although, Angie’s probably asleep as I’m posting this.)
First up, my workout…I set my alarm for 5:15 and proceeded to turn it off. I thought about getting out of bed for about 10 minutes. Then went to sleep. I guess my body needed the sleep. Of course, I felt guilty all day (and kinda blah), so I FORCED myself to run after the kids when to bed tonight. I got in 4 miles at a 9:18 pace, which I wasn’t expecting. I was expecting slow and clunky, but my legs just wanted to run and I went with it. Yay!
Now, I’m sitting here contemplating signing up for the Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon RELAY.
This is really what it's like
I want to run it with the hubby — I just wish it wasn’t so darn expensive!! We were going to run the half together — but it’s $145 a person!! The relay is $230. It includes a post-race beer and admission into Epcot for the post party. Hmmm…
As for my whine…
I got a letter today from my HOA telling me I needed to pressure wash my house. Now, I was JUST telling the hubby that he needed to pressure wash it on his next day off, but FOR REALZ HOA?? There are at least 50 empty/vacant/foreclosed homes in my neighborhood (which is about 10% – not terribly bad for Orlando) and you are going to tell me I need to pressure wash my house???? Some houses don’t even have grass! Grrrr…
and the wine…
Tonight I’m trying this:
although, first I’m drinking this, because I love a beer after a night run…
while the hubby watches porn…
Kidding. I think.
What’s your whine or wine??

I have not met a Blue Moon that I didn’t like!
Love Cupcake’s Red Velvet! Husband had to steal a glass when I wasn’t looking.

This my first time trying it — all I can say so far is YUM!!
Ugh, we were just complaining about how expensive that Wine and Dine relay is. My husband and I were going to sign up for it. He’s doing the Disney Marathon in Jan. again and well, I’m not quite ready mentally or physically for a half marathon on my own. But then when we got the registration email, I could not believe how expensive it is — even by Disney standards.
Sadly, I think we’re going to skip it. We already have season passes, so paying AGAIN to get into Epcot is just not worth it. It would have been fun though. Maybe we’ll stage our own through the World Showcase!

Yes! I think it was a little less last year and I might have had a coupon code. This year? Nada!
We don’t have season passes (We might get them next year though- yay!) so it would be fun to do Epcot. Last year my friend got really sick, so we mainly hung out by the bathrooms.
I’d pay to see you race through the World Showcase – ha ha.
You just totally made my night! First of all, your pace always amazes me. I have got to get faster! Second of all, I love Blue Moon. I just don’t do beer any more because I’m gluten free. Third of all, tell me about the wine. I’ve never had it. Fourth of all….your husband porn comment made me and Doug both laugh out loud!

Are far as pace goes – just keep doing what you are doing!! I really think consistently running (and forcing myself to run at very uncomfortable speeds) has helped me get faster. A year ago I was running probably close to an 11:00/mile pace!
I’m not a big beer drinker, but I would be sad about giving it up!
The wine…is SO GOOD! I think this is now my favorite (somewhat) cheap bottle of red wine! I really hope they sell it at BJs.
