Margaritaville 10K Recap:

Image
When one door closes another opens and so when I was five minutes from getting through the Wine and Dine Queue only for the 10K to be sold out I THOUGHT that open door would be that I would attempt a Disney Half and do the challenge… however with that selling out just as I logged in to register and spectrum deciding to crash mid 5K registration prematurely saving me from being a guinea pig for the new double sized field set up I saw that the Margaritaville Run wasn’t conflicting with the Jewish High Holidays and impulsively decided to sign up. At first I had planned to do this solo much like I do for most of my non Disney races however my sister decided to join and we made it into a party staying in the Disney bubble in a resort we don’t normally stay with for RunDisney events due to cost and bus logistics and we added on Not So Scary Halloween Party. Since this is strictly about my races I will not go into a full trip report however we had an amazing time and if I had the chance to st...

Going into this race it was going to be yet another notch in my dental drama diaries as like with Bonnet Springs I had a filling appointment set for bib pick up day however a few days before I got a call saying that the office was no longer doing Friday appointments so I was going into things with pretty good health. Now if the weather could hold so I wasn’t doing a shortened race like last year all the better. The day before (expo day) I had did a run later in the day to try to acclimate myself to what could have been weather wise and I was pleasantly surprised that the 88 feels like 89 on race evening was much more pleasant than the 93 feels like 94 on Friday afternoon. Anyway my OOTD was my purple Livi skort, Yellow Tec Gear tank, and my crowned starlake accessories. We parked at the AMTRACK Lot around 6PM and I nursed a gatorade and just vibed in the AC before walking over to the train station bathroom at 6:20 ish. I Don’t know if I was supposed to be using it but there were two ge...

Springtime To Seaworld

Image
While a good amount of the RunDisney social accounts that come across my FYP have opted to do Springtime to Dollywood (complete with costume changes between same day 5K + 10Ks) I’ve kept it local (ish) by doing my second annual Springtime to Sea World Challenge. Like with last year I started out with the Springtime 5K and 10K followed by the Seven Seas Food Fest 5K the following weekend… unlike last year there wasn’t a THIRD race the weekend prior to Disney as Bonnet Springs as you way was a few weeks earlier. Starting with Disney This year I was flying solo and since my sister was a bit out of the geo locked range for shopping VQs since she was just getting off a cruise in South Florida it was up to me. I managed to leave super early getting into shop group 62 right at 8:30. Since I knew that I’d be called closer to noon and we were already halfway there I opted to rope drop Springs and Gideons…. But first… there was a second VQ this year!!!!  Fresh off their official partnership ...
