New runDisney Medals Revealed

April 15, 2014 | Disney, runDisney, running

Hey everyone, first of all thank you so much for your kind words yesterday about my grandmother. My dad met with the social worker yesterday afternoon, and she was moved to Hospice by ambulance yesterday evening. Please keep praying especially for my mom and dad as they have to handle all of this.

On a happier note, you may have noticed runDisney released two new medals in the past couple of days, and they are so pretty! Not only that, they spin! I have become obsessed with spinner medals ever since my 2013 marathon weekend medal was put around my neck. It’s still my favorite! Can I just say how bummed I am to be missing out, particularly on Wine and Dine? I’m guessing this is just one of many sacrifices I will be making for my children Smile I love the colors and designs for both medals. The creative minds behind these designs just keep impressing me every time!

First up, the Wine and Dine 5th Anniversary medal. I LOVE the color!

Next, the 10 year Goofy design.

Obsessed with both. Too bad I swore off full marathons for a long time. Heh.

Sadly it’s too late to register for Wine and Dine, but, you can sign up to get your very own shiny new Goofy medal when registration opens! Folks, anniversary years sell out FAST so DO NOT wait around if you want to take part. Registration opens April 22, but if you are an annual passholder or DVC member, you can register THIS WEDNESDAY, April 16th. You can go to runDisney.com for more information and to sign up when registration opens.

QOTD: Did you/will you sign up for these? Thoughts on the medals? Do you like ones that spin?

    My attention span doesn’t stand a chance with spinner medals. I keep saying the Tink medal is the triple threat: it’s shiny, it has glitter and it spins.

      true!

    I am already signed up for Wine & Dine and will be signing up for Dopey 2015 so I’ll be getting both these gorgeous medals! I am SO excited!

    So excited to run my first Wine and Dine and have that shiny medal around my neck!

    • Heather says

      you will love it!

    Love that Goofy medal! I’ll be at Wine & Dine. Will miss you!!

      I’m so sad!

    I love those medals! I just wish they did cool ones like that for 5ks! ;p

    • Heather says

      April 16, 2014 at 8:43 am

      i’m kind of glad they don’t, the 5k already costs over $60 with the rubber medal, I’m sure it would be way more with a cool medal, yikes! But I get your point 🙂

    Love the spinner medals! My 20th anniversary Marathon one is my favorite too! I’m not running Wine and Dine or Marathon weekend this time. I’m running Princess Weekend instead. My budget only allows me one runDisney race a year lol!

    • Heather says

      April 16, 2014 at 8:44 am

      I love princess!

    I guess my recent glut of Disney medals has been content that I won’t be getting either of these. I do love my Mickey Marathon medal from 2013 that spins! The medal I covet at the moment is the Boston Marathon medal that I hope to receive in 2015. I just need to stay healthy since my qualifying time should give me a spot in the field of runners.

    • Heather says

      April 16, 2014 at 8:44 am

      You are a beast, I hope you go to Boston!

    You guys are in my thoughts and prayers. Please let me know if you need ANYTHING. I’m just down the road.

    I saw the Goofy medal yesterday. *drool* Ugh. It is SOOO cool.

    • Heather says

      thanks friend

    I keep missing the anniversary years! Missed the 20th aniversary medal by one year and now will miss the Goofy medal by one year. Sobs… : ( Couldn’t sign up for W&D this year either.

    • Heather says

      April 16, 2014 at 8:44 am

      bummer!

    my wine and dine medal from when i ran pregnant is one of my favorite medals of all time. disney always does such a great job with them!

    • Heather says

      April 16, 2014 at 8:45 am

      yes they do!

    The Mickey 20 medal from last year is also one of my favorites! Love the spinning action and the details in the design. I don’t have plans for W&D or Goofy coming up, but am looking forward to earning another Mickey in 2015 (and hopefully C2C too…)

    • Heather says

      April 16, 2014 at 8:45 am

      love coast to coast!

We’re always looking for ways to be intentional with our family’s decisions, which is why we’ve been learning more about Liberty HealthShare and the healthcare sharing community they’ve built.

Have you ever looked into healthcare sharing before? If you are curious like me, check out the link in my bio or stories for info!

Thinking about staying at Loews Royal Pacific Reso Thinking about staying at Loews Royal Pacific Resort? #hosted

A few things we loved:

🌴 Tropical island atmosphere that actually feels like an escape from the parks

🚤 Water taxi access to Universal CityWalk and the parks

🚶 Easy walking path if you’d rather skip the boat

🎢 Unlimited Express Pass included for registered guests

🏊 Beautiful pool area with plenty of space to relax between park days

For us, it was the perfect balance of resort time and theme park time.
Have you stayed at Loews Royal Pacific Resort, or is it on your Universal wish list?

*Valid on both arrival and checkout day. Please see the Universal Orlando website for rules and regulations for the unlimited express pass. Not valid at Epic Universe or Volcano Bay. Park tickets purchased separately.

I didn’t realize how much mental space hair removal was taking up until it just… wasn’t anymore. Between games, trips, and everything in between, having something I can do at home in minutes has been a total game changer. The app-guided treatments keep me consistent without having to think about it, and I’m already noticing smoother skin that actually lasts. And yes — the full-body, 10-minute-at-home situation still feels a little unreal. 

If you’ve been on the fence, Prime Day (June 14–27) is definitely the moment to check it out with $120 off. #BraunSmartIPL

We didn’t set out looking for a “perfect” trip… we We didn’t set out looking for a “perfect” trip… we just needed a break from the noise.
What we found in Florida was something better than that. #ad

Our first stop in Auburndale was all about slowing down in the best way. We stayed in a cozy tiny home at Camp Margaritaville (you can also stay in an RV!). We enjoyed coffee on the porch, our daughter loved the pool and waterslide (there is even a splash zone for the littles!), and at night we slowed things down with s’mores instead of screens. It felt like nature + comfort + family time all finally in the same place. They have so many other amenities like mini golf, golf cart rentals, pickleball, a playground, cornhole, and more. Nearby, we explored the Florida Children’s Museum and had incredible food and drinks at Smith’s American Tavern and Black & Brew Coffee. 

Then, we headed over to Fort Myers to experience a completely different side of the state. Shelling walks at sunrise, beach volleyball, pool cabanas, and the kind of Gulf sunsets that make everyone go quiet for a minute. Direct beach access at the Margaritaville Beach Resort Fort Myers made it effortless to go from “let’s check it out” to toes in the sand in minutes. There were several restaurants on property, so we never even got in our car. That plus live music, fire pits, the spa, and lawn games made it easy to want to stay put and relax.

What stood out most wasn’t just the scenery… it was how easy it was to actually be together here. No rushing or overplanning. That’s the true Floridays feeling for me. Laid-back, a little unexpected, and exactly what we didn’t know we needed. 🌴☀️

When the Smoky Mountain heat gets unbearable, we h When the Smoky Mountain heat gets unbearable, we head to Pigeon Forge Snow. ❄️ #sponsored 

One of our favorite family activities in Pigeon Forge because you can snow tube year-round, rain or shine, without worrying about the weather outside. 

My daughter could do the tubing hill over and over, and the indoor snow play area makes it even more fun. Honestly such a good break from the summer heat. Plus, it’s super close to nearby attractions like Dollywood and several mountain coasters.
