training for disneyland half marathon

The past 12 weeks we have been training for the Disneyland Half Marathon (13.1 miles). We do our long walks/runs at the lake near our house. It has not been easy but I think we are ready. The marathon is Sunday, August 30th. It is one of our biggest adventures yet. Brian, Daisy and Marissa will be joining us. Wish us luck and I will post pictures...
our survival items. o.n.e. coconut water and sports beans. we have learned that we can't run with just water alone. we usually run out of energy at mile 10 so these items help us... the coconut water has natural electrolytes and the potassium of 2 bananas. it tastes good too..



pretty nice view of the lake



i wanted to practice my photographic skills while jogging
