Very late last night,
I got an incrediable offer. An offer
that I did not have to even think about.
I said yes instantly. Last night,
a blog read and friend offered me a bib for the Tangled Royal Family 5k. My husband and I have been discussing over
the past few months about doing the 5k together, but he was never in to it, so
I let it go and it sold out. I was kind
of bummed when it sold out, but I figured there is always next year. I am so appreciative to my friend, you know who
you are, for giving me this oppurtunity.
Last night I did a
crash course of learning about the Tangled Royal Family 5k. I learned that I have to be at the Epcot
parking lot by 6:15 am. I put the word
out to my Facebook friends and I found a ride from the Bay Lake Tower to the race. The course starts in the Epcot Imagine parking
lot. We will run thought all the
counties of Epcot’s World’s Showcase. To
finish out the race, we will run through Future World past Spaceship Earth and
back into the Imagine parking lot thought the finish line. Each finish will earn a finisher
mediallion.
My only delemma is
what to wear. I know I was asking you
all yesterday your opinion about what to wear to the race. Know that I am doing the 5k too actually makes
this an easier decision. As of right
now, my plan is to wear my pink SparkleSkirt! to the half and my Rapunzel
purple outfit to the Tangled Royal Family 5k.
I plan to use the Tangled
Royal Family 5k as a warm up for the Disney Princess Half Marathon on
Sunday. This will not be a PR race for
me. I am going to take it easy, have fun
on the course, hopefully get some great pictures and get a fell for how a runDisney
race works.
On a very sad note, registration
for the Disneyland Half Marathon is closed.
It filled up before I could register.
I looked just this morning at it and it was 93% full. I figured I still had a few days before
registration closed. Boy was I
wrong! Sadly, I will not be doing the
Disneyland Half in 2012 and will not be a Coast to Coast runner this year.
Are you doing the Tangled
Royal Family 5k? Are you dressing
up? Have you ever done a 5k the day
before a Half Marathon?
A dream is a wish…

I won't be a Coast to Coast finisher this year either. But next year!
ReplyDeleteI am with you Anna!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of running the Iron Girl Half in Columbia, MD in April. Interested? Or would you like to do it as a relay?
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a fun 5K! Sorry you won't get to do the Disneyland Half this year.
ReplyDeleteAmy if you really want to run in this year's Disneyland half there are other options, such as running with a group like TNT or Team Challenge, it’s a lot of money to raise, but they are both great causes! I can't believe how quickly Disneyland sold out. Have fun at the Princess Race!!
ReplyDeleteThank you all for the encouragement. As the time gets closer, I am so ready for this! I know you all are too!
ReplyDeleteKim--what is the Iron Girl?
