So in 1 week I will be running the Disneyland half marathon! Things are very real now. I get on a plane in just a couple of days to go to California for the first time. I’ve gotten my waiver printed, my corral placement, and tracking texts set up. This will be my last training […]
DL half marathon training – 2 weeks to go!!
Oh goodness, two weeks! In two weeks I’ll be running all around Disneyland and the streets to Anaheim. And there will be so much to look that I’ll hardly notice that I’m running 13.1 miles. At least, that’s what I kept telling myself during my long run this week when I felt like stopping – […]

Disney Running Playlist
Music is probably one of my biggest motivators when it comes to running. I’ve tried to do podcasts or nothing at all, and my times are almost always better when I’ve got tunes going. And the right songs can really get you moving! I have a whole bunch of different genres that I listen to, […]
My summer running must-haves
I know a lot of the people that read my blog are runners, so I wanted to share what I’ve found works best for me when it comes to running clothes/gear on my daily runs. I might do something different for races, when I’m doing a cool costume, but for everyday use here […]
