Runblogger Runcast #8 – Avoiding "The Wall" at the 2010 Disney Marathon

Runblogger RuncastA few weeks ago I ran the 2010 Disney Marathon in a PR time of 3:24:49 (read my Disney Race Report here), and it was the first of my five marathons in which I managed to avoid bonking (check out these split charts from my five marathons). Runblogger Runcast #8 discusses the reasons that I think most contributed to my avoidance of “the wall” during Disney – I can’t be sure which of them was most important, but my hope is to show that even for someone who formerly viewed it as an inevitability, “the wall” can in fact be avoided.

I apologize for the annoying rattle that appears from time to time in the audio – didn’t realize it was there until I listened to the recording.  Turns out a plastic bottle cap was stuck in  a crack next to my car’s cup-holder while I was recording.
