It’s my favorite annual trip report – my WDW Marathon trip! See all the posts in this trip report here. Onward! So anyway, what I did was, the night before the WDW Marathon I had a panic attack. Haha! Or at least I think it was a panic attack. I honest to God COULD NOT SLEEP. My heart was...
Continue readingHow To Get Good runDisney Photos
Man, I feel like I’m coming off kinda conceited just typing that post title. “How to get good runDisney photos.” Like I would know, right? Oddly enough, though, I’ve had more than one person ask me how my running photos always look so good, which, first of all: remember the #1 rule of Instagram. YOU ARE ONLY SEEING WHAT...

The Wilmington Historic Half Marathon & 5K: so nice I did it twice, twice! I’m sure that opening was just about as subtle as a hammer to the skull, but I’ll explain. You can run the Wilmington Historic 5K at 7am, or you can run the Wilmington Half Marathon at 7:45am… or you can run both! Last year I...

It’s time for my all-time favorite type of post: the trip report! See all the posts in my 2022 Wine & Dine Half Marathon trip report. Onward!

Continue readingRace Recap! A 5K In The Mile High City
Nobody was more surprised than me that I attended the 2022 Tessitura Network Convention – I went from contracted employee to full time and on a plane to the Mile High City in the blink of an eye. Was I excited to go to Denver for the first time? Yes! But was I more excited for the conference 5K?...
Continue readingRace Recap! Freedom 5K
Don’t cry because Coastal Race Productions’ Freedom 5K was a humid, sweaty mess; smile because it happened. For real: the weather report the day before was thunderstorms ALL DAY. The CRP website states that they handle inclement weather by delaying until it’s safe, but if it’s never safe, then what? Luckily, I have no idea, although I can add...
Continue readingRace Schedule: The Next Generation
I haven’t enumerated my race schedule since October, so I’d say we’re well past due for an update! I mean, not that you can really trust me – the race schedule I plunk down on paper blog post doesn’t always jive with what actually comes to pass. But you’re not above engaging with some wild speculation with me, are...
Continue readingAn Open Letter To runDisney
The runDisney support contact form only allows like 3 paragraphs before it cuts off, so upon publication of this post I will be sending them a link. I will also tag them on social media in the hopes someone on the runDisney team might read it. I am also interested to hear what my fellow runDisney runners think about...

Trip report time! I’m covering my April 2022 trip for the Tower of Terror 10 Miler. Read all the posts in this report here. Onward! How did I feel when I woke up at 2:45am for the Tower of Terror 10 Miler? Well, let’s see: Haha, I exaggerate, obviously. I felt fine – my previous evening’s Disney Springs adventure...

Oh, how sad to be right. But in the ashes of defeat are the seeds of victory, so here’s my 2022 – inaugural! – North Myrtle Beach Sunglasses Half Marathon race recap all the same. We begin with a 4:45am wakeup call (still luxuriously late compared to runDisney) and the 55-minute trek from Wilmington down to North Myrtle Beach....
