And so it begins. Even though the marathon is over 6 months away (January 8th), training has begun this week. I follow the Jeff Galloway plan for run training and it served me well for 10ks and halfs, so I figured I’d stick with it for the full. Even though the first week is basically what I’ve […]
ODDyssey half marathon recap
I’ve been trying to keep up with running in preparation for the beginning of marathon training, so I signed up for a half marathon this June, on Sunday the 12th. It was in Philadelphia and called the ODDyssey half marathon. I like races that have something a little unique to them, and this one definitely […]
RunDisney for non-runners
Welcome to this month’s Blogorail Blue Loop. Today we are sharing some tips for your runDisney race. I write a lot about RunDisney events and the training I do. And while I’ve done a number of half marathons now (and a full marathon coming up!), RunDisney doesn’t have to be as intense as I make […]
Run the Vineyards 5k recap
Sometimes (often) the best part of running is what’s waiting at the finish line. It’s usually a medal for longer races, or sometimes it’s just knowing that Jason is there cheering me on and feeling proud of me. But for the 5k I ran this past Sunday, there was wine! One of the perks of […]
Can I be a blogger and a runner and an actor?
I’ve always been a passionate person, and one of the things that I’ve realized is that I’m passionate about a lot of things. I try to do so much in my life and at times it definitely feels overwhelming. Right now I’m trying to balance a number of jobs and hobbies, and I don’t know […]
26.2 reasons why I’m crazy: The Disney World Marathon
Yup, I can give you 26.2 reasons why I’m crazy – they’re called miles, and I’m going to be running them. In Disney World. On January 8th, 2017. I registered to run the Disney World Marathon. I’m pretty sure I’m insane, actually. Registering was a lot easier than I thought it would be. Just click […]
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 […]
Hershey 10k 2016 recap
I mostly blog about Disney, but every once in awhile I like to share about one of the other theme parks which is more local to me – Hershey Park! It may not be Disney, but it’s still a lot of fun and an easy day trip from where I live. Plus, they’ve been doing […]
Epcot restaurant checklist!
One of my most popular posts two years ago was my Disney World restaurant checklist. However, many things have changed since I made that list – particularly with Disney Springs, but all of the theme parks have had places that opened or closed recently. Because of this, I thought I would design a new checklist – […]
Making a Rapunzel running costume
For the Princess half marathon I decided to do a Rapunzel running costume. There were several pieces to my outfit, but the most important thing to me was that it was comfortable. Some of them I made and some of them I bought, but I figured I’d share how I put the whole thing together […]
