Spirulina saved the day

by Lori and Michelle on January 9, 2010

Hey everyone,

Congrats to all the Disney Half Marathon Runners!!! What a day it was.

Our older sis Jen, and her mother-in-law, Sally, made it!!!

The sis told us our spirulina sports drink helped get her through the race. She felt great despite the cold, rainy weather  : )

She also enjoyed some of the goodies Lori and I will be enjoying tomorrow on our race day, so glad to see they worked!!

We did not sleep much last night, plus got up 3am with the sis to get her all ready.  Then laid back down for an hour then it was time to get dressed to go stand in the cold as we cheer them on.

Before we left the hotel we each grabbed two fudge brownie bites. Then after seeing Jen and Sally outside our hotel, which was around mile marker 4.5. We jumped on the monorail and to meet them over at the Grand Floridian.

As we watched Jen and Sally head down the road back to Epcot, we jumped back on monorail and ran up to the room to have ourselves some of raw coconut yogurt with msm and yacon syrup. Sorry no picture we were in a hurry.

Then we headed back on monorail to head to Epcot and watch them cross the finish line.

Now we are back at hotel getting ready to the blogger lunch!

Although we did grab some food just in case we cannot find something we can eat.

Thank you to my dear twins and PURE 2 RAW! Thank you for all of your raw treats, puddings, drinks (especially the Nutrex Hawaiian Spriulina drinks) and I finally understand the POWER of green smoothies. You are the ONLY reason I was able to complete this 4th Goofy’s Race and a Half Challenge.
