During my January trip to Disney World, marathon weekend was happening – while normally I might have thought about signing up for the half marathon, I had a friend who was interested in doing the 10k so I decided to go for that instead. Figured I’d “take it easy” for the weekend instead, since I’ll […]
Disney World 10k recap
Friday morning was the 10k of my Dopey Challenge – my favorite distance! I would have to work not to run all out, because I needed to save my strength for the rest of the weekend. Plus my back was hurting a bit from the previous day. We’d gone to Hollywood Studios and there was […]
Dopey Challenge training – week 12
I have embarked on a bit of a crazy quest to run the Dopey Challenge in 2020. It’s in Walt Disney World in January 2020 and takes place over 4 consecutive days of a 5k, 10k, half marathon, and full marathon. I’m trying to document my training weekly to help keep me on track! I […]

Enchanted 10k 2016 recap
On Saturday, February 20th, I woke up at 3am. Was I crazy? Maybe. But I decided to run a Disney race, and it’s up bright and early for them! Well, I shouldn’t say bright and early. It wasn’t bright because the sun wasn’t even up yet. But I got on my Tiana running costume and […]
Hershey 10k 2015 recap
While this isn’t strictly Disney related, it does involve running, which I know a lot of readers are interested in, and Hershey Park, which is also a theme park… so close enough! This past weekend I participated in the Hershey 10k in Hershey PA. We arrived the evening before and picked up my race packet, […]
