Another February has gone by, which means another Disney race weekend! I just can’t quit Princess race weekend so I found myself there again running the Fairy Tale Challenge – that the 10k on Saturday and the half marathon on Sunday. Like all good Disney races, it was up bright and early for the Enchanted […]
Enchanted 10k 2019 recap
When it comes to running, I really think the 10k is my favorite distance. It’s long enough that it feels like a challenge, but short enough that I don’t feel dead by the end of it. Doing a 10k in Disney is even better! So I always sign up for the Fairy Tale Challenge when […]
How to make a Fairy Godmother running costume
For the first time in a Princess race, I didn’t run as a princess! Because I was traveling with a group of people, many of whom were also running, we decided to do a group costume. After much debate over which movie to do and what characters everyone would be, we finally settled on Cinderella. […]
Enchanted 10k 2018 recap
2018 marks the 5th anniversary of the Enchanted 10k, and it also happens to mark my 5th year running this event! The inaugural Enchanted 10k in 2014 was my first real race ever, so this one is pretty special to me. Like all Disney races, we were up bright and early at 3am […]
How to make a Vanellope running costume
I love planning RunDisney costumes, and doing them for the Princess races are some of my favorites. I’ve traditionally done a princess for every one of these races. I followed along in that theme this year as well, though I chose to do some more “non-traditional” princesses rather than the typical ones. For the Enchanted […]
Enchanted 10k 2017 recap
This year was my 4th time running Disney’s Enchanted 10k, as I have participated in the event since its inaugural race in 2014. It’s one of my favorites, with a fun course and a great theme. This year, with the princess theme being Beauty and the Beast, it was extra exciting for me. I ran […]
Tiana running costume
Most of my Disney friends know that Belle is my favorite princess, but what many people might not know is that Tiana is a very close second. I love Princess and the Frog and I think Tiana is a great character, so when I was deciding which princesses I wanted to dress up as this […]
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 […]
Making a Snow White running costume
I use the term “making” here a little liberally as I only actually made from scratch one part of my costume for the Enchanted 10k – the rest of more of how I put the costume together from various pieces I had or bought. But I was really happy with how it turned out, so […]
Enchanted 10k 2015 recap
February 21st the second Enchanted 10k, and also my second time running it! We were up bright and early, and I got into my Snow White running costume that because of the cold temperatures now had leggings and running sleeves to it. We got on the bus around 3:30, so that we could stand around in the […]
