How to make a Jasmine running costume
A look at how I put together my Jasmine running costume: I’ve been trying to do all of the princesses as costumes for Princess race weekend, and in February 2020 Jasmine was still one I needed to cross off my list. I will be totally honest – I had avoided Jasmine a bit because I […]
Disney Princess half marathon recap 2026
It’s another Princess half marathon! As usual, I was doing the challenge. The Princess 10k had been the day before, so it was another early morning in a row. I usually try to dress as a princess for at least one of the races during princess weekend, but at this point I’ve done almost all […]

How to make a Topolino Minnie running costume
A look at how I put together my Topolino Minnie running costume: I thought running another marathon wasn’t in my future, but then I signed up for the Disney World 2026 marathon because something about it felt right.

Walt Disney World marathon weekend recap 2025
While I have been at RunDisney’s Princess race weekend every year since 2014, Marathon weekend is not a consistent trip for me. I have found myself going more often than I expected the past few years, though! I didn’t really think I would go back after my Dopey Challenge in 2020, but this year now […]
