Run, Lola, Run.

JT, my sister and I were gathered around the den eating homemade peach ice cream at my aunt's house tonight. My aunt, Michelle, found an article in a runner's magazine about a new half marathon in Disney World in October. The interesting part about this half marathon is that it begins at 10 p.m. and once you complete the run, you and your friends are invited to a special Disney after party with free beer and wine.

Kallie decides she wants to run this half marathon, so it's decided that we'll all do this next year as a celebration of her 21st birthday. We begin to make various plans and talk about the many "what ifs" involved in this adventure. We discuss training programs and other 5K or 10K events in the Birmingham area we could do to train for this. Then we start talking about our favorite rides in Disney World and where we would stay. Some of the things we are saying actually have the potential to come true, but most of it is complete nonsense. 

At some point, Kallie says "Whoa, we gotta stop. We're being too unrealistic here"

And JT responds, "No offense, but we asked Kristin to run a half marathon, so it was pretty unrealistic from the beginning."

Sweet, guys. Thanks a lot. -KMac
