You're going to Disney or to the Marathon weekend?
I live about 20 minutes away from Disney

I'm not a runner by nature (although my father is a marathoner and my brother is a cross country superstar... dunno must have missed that gene) so I've been starting small. I run/jog/walk 3-4 times a week for 30-40 minutes. I'm not going for distance yet, just endurance. Once I'm comfortable running, I will start running longer distances and worrying about pace and such. I'm trying to recruit a few others to run with me for the big day so we can keep each other motivated

We're just taking our then 5YO to Disney. My wife is from FL as well, and she use to go to the park all the time. We're probably going to be moving back to FL in a coupe of years.

So, cool - you have a goal to work towards. And the idea of recruiting others is a good one IMO. You can keep each other focused. You looking for others to train with?

You may actually have the running gene, you just haven't tuned it in yet, but it sounds as if your headed that way
