Can never go wrong here..
Yes, as we have discussed - Starbucks is life (as I drink my vanilla sweet cream cold brew!)
Soooo good!!
Those medals are perfection!!
I wouldn't have even noticed the bent ear! Your hair looks great btw.
Thanks!!

The magic of the curling wand!
Oh! I get this way too sometimes and it stinks. Glad you were able to find some yummy icecream, but sorry it took so long.
It is seriously the worst! I don't know why I had such a hard time finding food, haha!
For real. I need to try to re-create that drink at home!
Yay for a fantastic half! That is super great, and again, another testament to your hard work!!
![Title :yay: :yay:](http://www.wdwinfo.com/images/smilies/yay.gif)
Thanks!!
I'm disappointed there wasn't more on course entertainment outside the parks (and I really hope they decided to put some in before Tink next year!). I would need music for sure during that portion! I'm always so impressed with people that can run "naked"
Ya know...that MousePlant article that came out is making me wonder if this is the new norm for Disneyland races. I had no idea that all of those entertainment groups were comp'd with tickets (very naive of me, I guess). So if seems like if runDisney doesn't comp them in some day, they won't come back. I'm curious to see what happens at the DL half in September.
AS for running without music...I used to run with it all the time and then I realized I was just thinking about stuff on my runs (grocery lists, schedule for the upcoming day, etc.) and not paying attention to the music at all, so I ditched it. I do sometimes use it for looooong runs.
Oh and another shoutout to your race outfit. The vibrant blue colors looks great in that setting! And your wildflower shirt and mermaid leggings with the character photos. So great!
Thanks!! Have you tried the 6" shorts yet? As you can see, I am obsessed with them! And my Sarasa tank/Denim shorts arrive today...eek!!
I can totally relate to the panicky hungry feeling! That happens to me (especially on vacation bc I go, go, go) I'm happy you got your cone in time, but that was probably no fun at all while you were waiting!
No, it wasn't! And I probably could have chosen something a little healthier.

One thing I am realizing reading back through this is how much CRAP I ate on this trip. I have no regrets!!
And yay for a fun meal at Carthay Circle. That place looks amazing.
It's perfect for those of us who are total Disney nuts.
I so wish I could've been in coral b with you and
@roxymama! I was stuck soooo far back in E and we couldn't hear a THING before the race. Sounded like the teachers from the peanuts...
Ah, me too! DIS-ers taking over!
I have had that problem at races in WDW, where I'm in the corral and cannot hear the announcements, etc. It's annoying! At the 5K/10K in WDW in January, none of us realized the National Anthem was happening until it was, like, halfway done.
![Title :confused3 :confused3](http://www.wdwinfo.com/images/smilies/confused24.gif)
They need to fix that!
Love all your pictures and yay for having a great race!! I had a terrible run from falling at the 10k. But you deserve a good run after all your pain filled ones.
Thanks! Ugh, I'm sorry you had a terrible run - you need to go back and have a great one!
![Frown :( :(](http://www.disboards.com/data/smilies/frown.gif)
I hope you're feeling better!!
Also wish I could've stayed at the dismeet longer! I had so much fun. I'm normally not so outgoing so that was awesome. My boyfriend thought it was hilarious we referred to each other by our user names.
Same here - I guess it's easy to talk to people whom you already know you have stuff in common with!! And that's funny about your BF, I guess he has a point!
Wait, you didn't want to be woken up really early by a test of the sound system? Why not? (I'm actually super impressed that you managed to not freak out and worry that you overslept ... that seems like the normal reaction)
I know it sounds crazy, but I prefer to be woken up by the dulcet tones of my iPhone (specifically the Playtime ringtone). And yeah, I have NO idea how the whole thing didn't freak me out!!
I love love love that you and
@roxymama and
@ZellyB got a picture together. It's so wonderful. And all three of you ladies look beautiful!
Thank yooouuu!!
You got some great PhotoPass pictures!! And your character pictures are awesome too! (I think you may be the only person I "know" who loves Pluto as much as I do...)
Who doesn't love Pluto?? I mean...that's like a crime against humanity.
The lack of entertainment outside the parks is definitely a bit disappointing. I don't know how much that's Disney vs. locals (or if its done in conjunction with locals), but ... having that entertainment there to pick you up can definitely be a game changer, and I could definitely see why people would be upset that it wasn't there.
Apparently it's a combination of both - Disney is no longer providing free park tickets to these groups, so they don't show up anymore. Lots of interesting info about how the Anaheim races are run has been coming out this week...
I'm really happy to hear that you were pain-free and felt good during this race! After putting in so much hard work despite all the struggles you've had since the injury first happened, I think you definitely deserved this!
Thank you!! I'm so happy too, so much more enjoyable this way.
SO MANY MEDALS!! Seriously, I'm impressed that you were able to wear all of them at once without tipping over or anything. Dopey + Princess 5K + Glass Slipper + Neverland 5K + Pixie Dust + C2Cx2 ... that's what, 16 medals? OMG!!
You're right that it would have been 16, but I had 13 - I left Goofy, Dopey and the XX Half Marathon at home.
![Title :confused3 :confused3](http://www.wdwinfo.com/images/smilies/confused24.gif)
I thought way too much about whether I *should* actually have/bring them since the half was canceled, so I just decided not to bring them. I think 3 more medals may have killed me, so it was a good decision.
Total medal envy! I just love that C2C. Great medal pictures in the parks! You always take good shots with the medals.
Thanks!! C2C is the best medal ever!! Regular or 10th edition, both awesome.
I've heard so many good things about Carthage Circle.
I'm assuming iPhone autocorrect got you - hilarious! Happens to me alllll the time.
I love love love the vibe of Carthay Circle - even if I didn't have a meal there, just hanging out in the lounge would be so fun. I found a download of the background music they play there and it's among my favorite park loops.
