RUN

The Florida Run 10K Trail Run in Clermont, Florida at Lake Louisa State Park was a great event for us to get some distance in and meet some great new people at the same time.   We got up super early and drove to Clermont, which is close to the Orlando area, to run our 2nd EVER trail run at this event. We love the shirt, medal, and the lessons we learned on the trail!   Shout to to Loren, Gail, and Leslie.  We met these three great people before the race.  Gail and Leslie walked the race with us while Loren ran the half marathon event.  

EAT 

Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend is an opportunity sample some great food from some of the first booths we experienced at the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival.  There are some we have missed so much for a few years.    Welcome back, Greece!  This is the first time we have covered this booth on our show,  but it is one of the OG booths we fell in love with at this festival. 

DRINK

Belgium, man… Belgium.  This booth had a great beer flight from some great breweries we love.  It also started to get us into the festive fall and holiday spirit for November and December.  St. Bernardus Witbier, Belgian Abbey Ale, and Delirium Red Fruit Ale are tasty brews we sampled in this Belgium beer flight.  We play back our review from our visit to Belgium in the World Showcase on this week’s show.   Can’t wait to get back to this one or get some St. Bernardus  or Delirium brews for the holidays here at home!
