thank you everyone for the comments! I am actually annoyed b/c the timing of my songs got mixed up, when I had to shorten the video by 3 minutes to fit it into the Youtube format. The full version has the "Wish Upon a Star" song starting right when the pictures of the castle start.
The full version is under the blurb under the video window- where everything is perfect!
Thank you for the comments! I am so glad to help inspire everyone!
I've probably watched this video 50 times. My wife and I are planning on doing this in 2012. We'd shoot for 2011, but my wife is pregnant and due in September and won't be able to get ready in time. It will be the first marathon for both of us. I actually pulled this up on my phone in the gym a few times to watch while I was on the treadmill to keep me motivated.
WOW,This is the best marathon video I have seen. Its just a week away from running my 5th GOOFY,and after watching your video,I am so ready,many thanks.
Nicely Done Vid. It's not only a nice record for you to reflect on and realize your accomplishment years later, but others like myself can learn from it. I've run 4 marathons and looking forward to this one. Thank you.
Tonight (10/24/09) is Disney's Tower of Terror 13K race. This video should be viewed by all that will eventually take a crack at doing a marathon because it truly inspirational!
OMG I dont even know you and it made me cry I was so proud of you!!! ;) I am a Mom of 2 and will be running Disney 2010. You have made me eve MORE excited. ???? How did you carry your camera and video. My camera is kind of big so think I will be using my cell phone. Congrats again!!!!
That was great. You rock! Congrats, and thanks for the first-hand perspective of your experience. I wish I had the guts to do a marathon instead of just 5k's. Congrats again!
Awsome job and thank your for your fundraising efforts for CTF!!!!. I am doing my first marathon in 3 weeks here in MN and fundraising for CTF. Determination and thinking of my son with NF keeps the motivation going
That was great! My husband and I are doing the 2010 marathon. I have never run before in anything ever I am so scared but I am more determined than ever! Thanks!
You're welcome! I really am happy to help people get ready and excited!
Don't be scared! especially because your first race will be Disney, it will be fun and very enjoyable... and most importantly distracting from pain and exhaustion!
That was awesome!! Thanks so much for giving me an inside look. My husband and I are doing are first marathon in January 2010 at DisneyWorld!!! (with the princess 1/2 to followin in March!) Your little penguin walk at the end was very telling!! I'm sure you were hurting but you must have been proud!
Yes, I was in a lot of pain after! Prior to the marathon I was injured from November till about 2 weeks before the race, so my training was 9 miles. :)
Good luck to you and your husband!! I am so jealous, wish I could do it again next year. I am so happy to help people get an inside look and get excited!
my husband and i are doing our first marathon at Disney in 01/2010 also!! i have never done any kind of run before so i am very anxious about it, but excited!
Your video is very inspirational to new runners! I started running about 3 months ago and I am up to 8.2 miles in 1hr 40min 32sec. I am hoping to run my first half-marathon by September 09 and who knows, maybe run a full marathon by January 2010?
Good luck! You can do it! I actually ran this marathon with only running up to 9miles because I was injured for the 2 months before. So it's totally possible!
There are definitely some good deals at the moment, I picked up a lot of info from bestvaluethemeparks (.) com
