Running the Dopey Challenge tips

May 12, 2020 by beckyginther@gmail.com 2 Comments

Today was registration day for January Disney World marathon weekend! I myself have signed up for the 10k and half marathon, but this past year I completed the Dopey Challenge. If you’re not familiar, the Dopey Challenge is running 48.6 miles over 4 days. That’s a 5k, 10k, half marathon, and full marathon 4 mornings […]

How to make a Joy running costume

April 16, 2020 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

When I ran the Disney World 10k I decided to dress up as Joy from Inside Out as one of my costumes! She is one of my favorite characters ever. It’s funny, because even as someone who can suffer from depression and anxiety, I relate a lot to Joy. I can be extremely passionate, excited, […]

Princess half marathon recap 2020

March 19, 2020 by beckyginther@gmail.com 3 Comments

This past February was my 6th time running the Princess Half Marathon. It’s a pretty special race for me because it was my first ever half marathon in 2015. I was once again back for the Fairy Tale Challenge and had run the Enchanted 10k the previous day. I woke up about 2:30am like any […]

Enchanted 10k 2020 recap

March 9, 2020 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

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 […]

How to make a Minnie Mouse running costume

February 17, 2020 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

One of the things I was most excited about when it came to the Dopey Challenge was planning what costumes I was going to wear for each race! I’m a sucker for getting dressed up, so it was fun to plan out 4 different outfits. I ended up going with a Minnie Mouse running costume […]

Disney World 5k 2020

February 4, 2020 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

This was actually my first time running a Disney 5k! I’d only ever done 10k’s and half marathons, plus the one full marathon. It was definitely a different sort of experience, I don’t really feel the need to do a Disney 5k ever again. But for the Dopey Challenge it was the start of a […]

Disney news, rumors, and round up: February 2020

February 3, 2020 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

Happy February! There seems to be a smaller amount of Disney news this month, but I think part of that is because they are saving announcements for the spring and what’s to come in summer. It’s still a fun month, with the Festival of the Arts and Princess race weekend in Disney World and the […]

Disney World 10k recap

January 27, 2020 by beckyginther@gmail.com 7 Comments

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 […]

Disney World half marathon recap 2020

January 23, 2020 by beckyginther@gmail.com 10 Comments

  Out of all 4 of the races I did during Dopey Challenge weekend, I think the half marathon was in many ways the most challenging. It came after two days of racing and getting up early, it was much warmer than the previous two mornings, and it was also a mental challenge.  I knew […]

Disney World marathon 2020 recap

January 16, 2020 by beckyginther@gmail.com 5 Comments

I did it!! I not only ran my second full marathon, I did it as part of the Dopey Challenge AND beat my previous marathon time by over 50 minutes. The Disney World marathon was overall a great, magical experience. There are definitely plenty of parts of running the marathon that are tough, but I’m […]

About Me

Hi, I'm Becky!

I'm a huge Disney fan in my early 30's and always trying to find a way to put a little bit of Disney into everyday life. I live in Pennsylvania but travel to the theme parks several times a year - I'm an annual passholder at Disney World! In addition to Disney I love traveling, running, and theater.
