Coast to Coast Photos

May 9, 2013 | runDisney, running

Good morning! I am finally HOME! After two weeks of being all over the place, I got to sleep in my own bed last night! I will be attempting to get my blogging and life back to normal, so if you have emailed, tweeted, etc. to me, I’m not ignoring you just trying to catch up. A couple of things you may have missed yesterday:

runDisney announced the new medals for the Disneyland half marathon weekend, and I am hosting a giveaway for a $100 visa gift card!

I still have a lot to share from the press event, my cruise, and time in Walt Disney World, but I will be spacing those posts out with some other things. I also wanted to post a few runDisney related photos from the press event. I got to chat with Faron Kelley at the trade show, and actually hold the new coast to coast medal. It’s so beautiful in person! I have never run Tink, but would LOVE to have the opportunity this year!

I got to chat with some of the runDisney team including Faron Kelley about the new Princess half weekend changes. A super great guy, it was a fun chat as usual. He has such a passion for runDisney.

What a beautiful sight.

Isn’t it pretty? Hopefully it will be mine! Where’s that money tree?

QOTD: Do you prefer the new coast to coast or the old one? What is your favorite runDisney medal?

    I loved the Tinkerbell medal. I ran it the inaugural year and was so memorized by how Tink flipped around. This past year I ran Goofy and quickly became enamored with the marathon medal. Every medal is so unique and well I just love them all equally 🙂

    I wish I loved the new Coast to Coast but I really prefer the old one! However, after getting two of the old ones, I just may have to branch out! It must have been really fun to see all those medals up close!

    I think I love the dumbo medal most and the glass slipper second!

      you have seen the glass slipper medal?

    I love the new medal! I was already planning on running both Tink and PHM so I am excited that there is something new and fun about this accomplishment! It makes it really special! 🙂 I am super excited to run Tink as I have never been to Disneyland! It will be a whole new experience!! 🙂

    I am hoping to Coast to Coast in 2014 with the marathon and Tink, but I’m not really a pink person, so I would opt for the regular medal. My one and only runDisney medal is Tink (which was fantastic and you should totally do!), but I have a feeling Dumbo is going to take over in September!! 🙂

    • Heather says

      May 10, 2013 at 6:46 am

      I am dying to do tink!

    I actually liked the older c2c best with the year dangle (I got one in 2009). but, I still would like to add the pink one to my collection!

    my favorite rundisney medal to date is this year’s 20th anniversary Mickey. it is a gorgeous, huge, spinning medal with Mickey..
    what’s not to love? 🙂

    Did you get a look at the new 10k medal? Or has it even been revealed yet? Looking forward to that since it will (hopefully) be my first 10k and my first Disney run!

    • Heather says

      May 10, 2013 at 6:43 am

      the DL 10K or WDW 10k? the WDW 10k hasn’t been released yet

    You look so cute in your glasses! Sadly I have never run a Disney race, but hopefully one day!! Sure wish I had gotten into running when I actually LIVED in Orlando!!

    I have only been able to do Wine & Dine last year – which I loved! But the 20th Anniversary WDW Marathon is amazing!

    Looking forward to doing the Glass Slipper challenege next yr! Would also like to one year be able to do coast-to-coast, but don’t see that happening next year as of yet.

    Do you know if the pink C2C is for the Tink/Princess only? I am glad I am completing this year’s C2C for a regular medal… my boyfriend was really excited to get one and he would be mad if it was pink! LOL

    • Heather says

      May 11, 2013 at 8:14 am

      yes the pink is just for those two!

#ZbarPartner I know these days won’t last forever, #ZbarPartner I know these days won’t last forever, so I’m soaking up every driveway game, every laugh, every little break in the grass. 🤍 

Lately our go-to has been Zbar Protein Snack Bars, especially the new Strawberries ‘N Creme flavor that is made with organic whole grain oats, real fruit, and protein to help support growing kids. It’s a snack she loves and I feel good about too. 

It’s a great little reset so she can get right back to doing what she does best, playing her heart out 💕

Getting older, I started noticing my hair wasn’t q Getting older, I started noticing my hair wasn’t quite the same. A little more thinning, my scalp hasn’t felt the same, and I’ve spent more time just throwing it up into a ponytail, and honestly not giving it much thought beyond that. 🤷🏻‍♀️

So I started becoming more intentional about actually taking care of my hair and scalp, and it’s such a small shift, but it really does make me feel better.

I’ve been using Mochi Health’s personalized hair support options, which makes it easier to stay consistent instead of guessing what to use. It fits into my routine and finally feels like I’m doing something proactive for myself instead of just hiding it in a bun. Check out the link in my bio for $40 off your first month.

Embarkation day on the Disney Wonder out of San Diego is pure organized chaos in the best way. Bags everywhere, everyone buzzing, and that moment you step onboard and suddenly forget how to function like a normal human.

We’re talking: Where are we even going first? Do we eat or explore or both immediately? Why does this already feel like the best decision ever?

And then the sail a wave party happens and… yeah. You’re gone. Mentally, emotionally, everything. 😭

If you know, you know…embarkation day hits different 🚢✨

Thanks @bestdayevervacay and Disney for hosting us on this magical adventure! Use the 🔗 in my bio to let then plan a cruise just like mine, down to the last detail!

So… never. 👀

I wanted something simple, personalized, and actually doable, not a 47-step routine I’d abandon in two days. That’s why I started using Mochi Health for skincare + wellness support, and it’s been one small thing that makes me feel more put together (even when I’m not).

If you’ve been wanting to get your skin and wellness together without overthinking it, I shared more in the reel. Link in bio for $40 off your first month.
