In part 1 of the Beginner’s Guide to Run Disney, I covered some of the basics about pre-race stuff, like the hotels, expo, registration, and more. Because there are so many questions about running and the races themselves, I decided to put it into a separate post! Running/Races Should I wear a costume? You don’t […]
Glass Slipper Challenge Training – 11 weeks to go
This week happened to be a pretty good week for running! I managed to do all of my runs outside, and they all actually felt pretty good, despite the temperature being at about 40 degrees most of the week. I’m very happy with my times, and I ran the furthest I’ve run since the Tower […]
Exciting New Items from Milestones Sports Jewelry & Apparel!
I love featuring items for Disney runners – and out of the many that I’ve gotten to look into, Milestones Sports Jewelry is one of my favorites. They provide jewelry and clothing items – things you can wear during the race or after, to show off your accomplishments! The jewelry is really beautiful, and you […]
Glass Slipper Challenge Training – 12 weeks to go
12 weeks! That means we’re only three months away from the Glass Slipper Challenge, and I definitely do not feel ready for a 10k followed by my first Half Marathon! But slowly but surely I’m making progress. The weather has had me bummed out a lot recently, but I did a Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving […]
Tower of Terror 10 miler after party: Villains Bash!
Before I ran the Tower of Terror 10 miler, I was really curious what the after party, the Villains Bash, would be like. What rides would be open? What character would be out? Was there anything else to do? I had a lot of trouble finding any information on it at all! Disney didn’t […]
Glass Slipper Challenge Training – 13 weeks to go
Running just seems to get harder and harder these days, with the cold weather for me. I was in on the treadmill two days but today it was 55 degrees so I was actually able to get outside! It felt good to be out but it’s definitely harder than being on the treadmill, and can […]
Tower of Terror 10 miler expo
The expo for the Tower of Terror 10 miler took place this year on Friday, October 3rd from 10:00am-7:00pm, and Saturday, October 4th from 8:30am-3:00 pm. My friend and I headed there first thing on Friday morning, and we arrived at the ESPN Wide World of Sports around 9:40 or so. They were already […]
Glass Slipper Challenge Training – 14 weeks to go
Training for this has been so much tougher than it was for the Tower of Terror 10 miler. I think a lot of it has to do with the weather, and my reluctance to run outside in the cold. Add in some injuries and it just isn’t a great start! I only did two runs […]
Alice in Wonderland running costume
I’m not going to lie, one of the things that I get most excited for when it comes to a Disney race is putting together a costume. I love costumes! For the Enchanted 10k I did a simple Belle costume. This time around, a group of friends that was going decided we should do a […]
Glass Slipper Challenge Training – 15 weeks to go
Still trying to get back into the swing of things after being rather sick the past week, and finishing up the play that I’m in (closing night was Saturday!). I’ll get a little more free time, though I will be starting rehearsals for a new show soon! Just fitting in my runs this week was […]
