By David Drennan – I am not sure where or how this adventure began or where the thought really came from. The blame was partly put on Jeremy, but it is all a blur now. I do believe the idea of doing the Goofy Race and a Half in Disney World in 2010 started with a simple conversation in late 2008 at the Memphis half marathon. Just to be clear the Goofy Race and a Half consists of a half marathon on day 1 and a full marathon on day 2. There were four of us: Amy Dolbeare, David Drennan, Nick Fogleman, and Jeremy “Many Names” Peck.
