I ran 47 minutes today, it was nice. I'm exaughsted from all the amusement park stuff this week, tomorrow I will try to do another 6 which would set me up for a 10 mile Saturday to get a 40 mile week. Found out Hollywood studios is different from universal studios :(. It was still fun though, if there's one thing I learned from this trip, Disney World is a billion times more fun at night time! And Epcot is the best park of the 4! Not for rides though, the rides were disappointing, but I had a good time! It was an interesting trip, that's for sure. My Buckeyes are having a rough time, but they're coming back! Good Ohio State won in a thriller!

Nice job getting some running in while on vacation, Blake. Not easy to do at Disney. Most guys would have just taken the week off.

Thanks Jake, that means a lot, especially coming from such an accomplished runner! It was hard, but I had a lot of fun!
