runDisney Information Page

As a lover of all things runDisney, I have run in many runDisney races over the past few years.

Here you will find runDisney information, race recaps, and more!

These events hold a special place in my heart because it is at a runDisney event where my distance running journey first began. Since then I have run almost every race, some multiple times. I have also had the privilege to attend several social media meetups and VIP events while in town for races. Check out the links below to see some of my favorite posts about these magical events, and feel free to email me with any questions!

Staying in an A-Frame cabin by Zook cabins at Val Staying in an A-Frame cabin by Zook cabins  at Valley Bear Farms felt like stepping into a real-life Pinterest board 🤍 (ad)

These architectural gems mix rustic charm with modern design—think soaring wood ceilings, giant picture windows, and a dreamy soaker tub that makes you never want to leave. 😍

We even brought our dogs along (yes, it’s dog-friendly!) and watched deer wander by through the trees. 🐾 

Valley Bear Farms is tucked in the mountains of North Carolina, surrounded by peaceful forest views and plenty to explore. The property has hiking trails, a cozy general store, and other on-site amenities that make it feel like a little mountain village all its own. ⛰️ 

If you’re craving a nature-filled, beautifully designed getaway where you can truly unwind, these A-Frame cabins are it.👍🏻

Not ready for a phone yet? SAME. 🙋‍♀️ The Cosmo Not ready for a phone yet? SAME. 🙋‍♀️ 

The Cosmo JrTrack 5 Smartwatch has been the perfect in-between for us — she can call and text the people I approve, I can see where she is with GPS, and it has school mode, SOS, activity tracking, and even a little camera she loves. 

We got the Holiday Bundle with the screen protector and LaunchPad stand, and it honestly just makes the whole thing easier. 

If you want the link, comment “watch” and I’ll have it sent straight to your inbox. 🎄⌚️✨

🎄 POV: Our Weekend Holiday Getaway in Pigeon Forge 🎄 POV: Our Weekend Holiday Getaway in Pigeon Forge 
There’s just something about the holidays in the Smoky Mountains — the lights, the laughter, the togetherness — it all feels extra magical. #sponsored

Our first stop was Dolly Parton’s Stampede, the world’s most visited dinner attraction, and it’s easy to see why. The pre-show in the Stampede Saloon had us singing along to country and Christmas classics before we sat down for a four-course feast that could rival any holiday dinner. 🐴 

Then the arena came alive with 32 magnificent horses, trick riders, and dancers bringing the spirit of the season to life with a friendly North vs. South Pole rivalry, toys that come alive, and even Santa arriving in a horse-drawn sleigh. Pure holiday joy from start to finish! 🎅🏻 

Next up was the Titanic Museum Attraction, beautifully transformed into an Elegant Edwardian Christmas, giving Titanic the Christmas voyage she never got.  We each received a boarding pass with the name of a real passenger, explored the Grand Staircase, and even touched the icy 28-degree water.  The interactive exhibits made history come alive, and it was such an emotional, unforgettable experience for all of us. 

And to end the weekend, we dove into adventure at Pirates Voyage Dinner & Show.  Led by Captain Blackbeard himself, the Crimson and Sapphire crews battled for treasure with acrobatics, mermaids, fire stunts, and even a sea lion! Between the four-course pirate feast and the jaw-dropping stunts, it was nonstop fun and the perfect grand finale to our Pigeon Forge weekend. 🏴‍☠️ 

 This trip reminded me that time together really is the best gift. Add Pigeon Forge and these incredible attractions to your holiday must-do list this season. ❤️

Comment “Pigeon Forge” and I’ll send you links to grab your tickets before they sell out!

@botabox makes it so easy to unwind at home — no corkscrew, no pressure, just premium wine that stays fresh for up to 30 days.

We love that it’s sustainable, portable, and seriously delicious. Quality wine, great value, and memories that last longer than the bottle ever could. #BotaBox #BeOpenToAnything #BotaMoments
Holiday hosting just got a whole lot easier ✨ As Holiday hosting just got a whole lot easier ✨ 

As a busy mom, I love serving a “wow” cocktail that looks impressive but takes almost zero effort. The Bartesian lets me skip the recipe testing, ingredient shopping, and playing bartender all night. Just pop in a capsule, add the appropriate spirit, choose your strength (or make it a mocktail!), and your drink is ready in about 30 seconds, with no measuring, no mess, no stress!

With over 50 cocktail options and multiple machine models to fit your needs, it’s become my go-to for all of our holiday events. 

🛍️ Black Friday came early—now through 12/3 save up to $150 off Bartesian Cocktail Makers! 

🍹 So check the link in my bio or comment the word CHEERS below and I will send you the link so you can upgrade your hosting game this season! 🎄🍸
