In Which Jenn Uncovers A Surprise (FastPass)

April 30, 2018August 26, 2021Leave a comment

I’m sure I’m not the only one who keeps a small shrine to Disney parks in their cubicle. Some of the more enterprising of you may have beautifully framed photographs and artfully fanned park maps. Me, I more or less slapped some schmatta on the wall with push pins and called it done.  Okay, so it’s not the most...

In Which Jenn Recaps The George Washington Parkway Classic

April 26, 2018August 26, 20212 Comments

I approached the George Washington Parkway Classic, a ten mile race, with one goal: don’t die. I was coming off a pretty serious cold (or, if you believe Pat’s wild theories, chest infection) and still had something of a cough. I felt fit enough to run (or, if you believe Pat’s wild theories, I was not fit enough to...

The Fairest Week In Review: Sicky McSickerson Edition

April 25, 2018August 26, 20212 Comments

This week I embarked on an experiment. I decided to see how much running I could do while mildly to moderately sick. To make things more interesting, I even threw a race day in there. Walk with me: Sunday | 10.05 miles outside in 1:45 I had quite suddenly developed a sore throat Saturday afternoon which did not dissipate...

Disney's Animal Kingdom

In Which Jenn Has A Favorite WDW Park

April 23, 2018August 26, 20212 Comments

And now we honor Disney’s Animal Kingdom in its 20th birthday week. Dear DAK, I mean every single word of this. It can be hard for a Walt Disney World enthusiast to pin down a favorite thing. The categories are so broad that narrowing down even a top three can seem daunting. The hardest question of all may be...

In Which Case Jenn Cannot Trust Her Running Tech (Mostly)

April 19, 2018June 13, 2022Leave a comment

I bought Bluetooth headphones a month or so ago, to free myself from the tyranny of all those connecting wires. The pair I got (affiliate link!) had largely rave reviews on Amazon, with one exception: there were multiple complaints that the headphones will interrupt your music with a “low power” warning every few minutes as soon as the batteries...

The Fairest Week In Review 4/18

April 18, 2018August 26, 2021Leave a comment

So normally this would be the day I would come to you bashfully with the news that I had signed up for the WDW Marathon AGAIN because it is my one true love. But, once again, runDisney has mysteriously postponed registration. This one doesn’t have me as worried as I’ve never had trouble getting a bib, even when I...

In Which Jenn REALLY Misses Night Races

April 16, 2018August 26, 20212 Comments

And don’t even get me STARTED on the Osborne Lights. I find it nuts that the Wine & Dine Two Course Challenge is still not sold out. But I have some theories as to why… A couple years ago, when the Wine & Dine Half Marathon became a regular morning race like all the others, we lost the last...

In Which Jenn Is Awkward Around Other Runners On The Trail

April 12, 2018August 26, 20212 Comments

Years ago I remember reading a post by a blogger about waving to other runners on the trail. It has haunted me ever since. In this post, the author expressed offense that other runners she passed out on the trail didn’t wave to her. Specifically in cases where she waved and received no response, which is understandable, but also...

The Fairest Week In Review: 4/11

Ooh, hey! I come to this week in review bearing gifts. Want to run with me in Annapolis on June 2? The people behind the Wayfarer’s Half just sent me a discount code! JourneyMate will net you $10 off the half and/or $5 off the 5k. (Don’t worry, you don’t have to run with me. I mean, I’ll be there, but you...

In Which runDisney Seems To Have Lost Its Unofficial Mascot

April 9, 2018August 26, 20212 Comments

I have a serious question for you, runDisney blogosphere: whatever happened to Sean Astin? I don’t mean generally; I know he’s been around these past couple years, doing his acting thing. Pictured: Sean Astin’s acting thing. But there was I time when I swear Sean Astin was at every single runDisney race. How do I know this? Because he couldn’t...
