We all took our turns in the bathroom, downed our pre-race fuel, and got ready for the walk to the start line. Since our hotel is only about a block Continue Reading
Racing Disney: Tinker Bell 10K Recap
By TMSM Racing Disney Guest Blogger Catie Neal
The first alarm went off at 3:30 AM. I don’t really think any of us started moving with that one. The second one started ringing around 3:35 AM and that’s when we started climbing out of bed. Four women getting ready in one hotel room for a race takes some skill.
Of course our outfits were all laid out the night before so all we had to do was put them on. However, Continue Reading

Race morning started out like all other runDisney events – EARLY! This race actually starts at 5:00 AM instead of the usual 5:30 AM.

We had decided a few weeks prior that we were just going to recycle our o Continue Reading

Runners expected the typical runDisney experience based on this blurb on runDisney’s website. They expected character stops on the course, an experience unique to runDisney. But they didn’t get it.

By TMSM Racing Disney Guest Blogger Catie Neal
Hello everyone!
So I left you last week with the finish of the 5K. After our fun day we explored Disney and took it pretty easy.

We cracked up the entire meal and had a really good time! After dinner we headed bac Continue Reading
