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!

    • Heather says

      May 10, 2013 at 6:47 am

      you have seen the glass slipper medal?

    Ooh I like it! I can’t wait to get my first coast to coast medal this year!

    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!! 🙂

    • Heather says

      May 10, 2013 at 6:47 am

    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!

#ad For too long, retirement has been painted as “slowing down.” But for me? It’s the opposite.

I see retirement as the start of bold adventures, family memories, and the freedom to keep moving and exploring — whether that’s traveling, staying active, or saying yes to new experiences.

✨I’m protecting my passion 

Because the people I love, the life I’ve built, and the retirement I want — it’s all part of my life’s work. And @Prudential can help protect it.

Had the best time with @visitflorida in Nashville Had the best time with @visitflorida in Nashville recently! We spent the evening up on the rooftop at @whitelimozeennash at the @graduatehotels making @bouquetbox arrangements, and it was perfection. 💐 🍹 🌅 

I learned a lot about places in Florida I have never visited, and met some great people. Florida is the state we visit most, and while y’all know I’m a theme park girlie, there is so much more to see and we love adding on little side trips to explore each time we go! 

Here is a list of places we learned about, can’t wait to visit some of these! 🏖️ Thanks for inviting us!
