To Run or Not to Run… That is the Question!

Those of you that know me know I don’t run.  At all.  OK, that’s a lie.  I run like a bat out of hell towards Aloha Isle for a delightful Dole Whip… and that’s about the extent of my running.  However, I am very seriously contemplating registering for a runDisney event–the Star Wars 5K in April, 2016.  You might be asking yourself, “Why in the world would she want to do this?”

Well, have you seen the finisher medals that you are awarded for actually finishing?!  They are HUGE, and Disney themed, and THE MOST GORGEOUS MEDALS EVER!  Which, in Kristy language translates to, time to get up, download the runDisney training guide, and start training NOW for the Star Wars™ 5K.  So, now I’ll run for two things, a Dole whip and a runDisney finisher medal.  Check these examples out…

So, for now, I’m downloading the training guide, and enrolling early (thanks for my Disney Vacation Club membership)!  The programs are inexpensive and you get a lot for your money: Characters along your route, customized bib, gift bag (which I am dying to know more about), snacks and drinks, and lots of other amazing Disney stuff!  I’m pumped!

One last thought…  Getting back to that ‘oh-so-important’ Dole Whip!  Do you know of a great recipe to make a homemade Dole Whip?  If you do, please share it with me – I’m all EARs!!!  I’m certain the runDisney training program requires a little Dole Whip motivation.
