Tower of Terror Race Weekend

September 30, 2013 | Disney, runDisney, running

It’s officially the week of the runDisney Tower of Terror ten mile race weekend! I have never run this race, so I can’t wait to experience it for the first time, it’s been on my race bucket list!

The race takes place the night of October 5, 2013, and starts at 10:00 at night. After the race is the Disney Villains Hollywood Bash until 4:00 in the morning. I am excited to see what this is all about, but I doubt I will be staying out until 4:00!

The health and fitness expo takes place Friday and Saturday (12:00-8:00 and 10:00 to 4:00) and will feature booths from many great companies and official race merchandise.

You can find a course map, final race instructions, race waiver download link, and spectator info on runDisney’s website.

If you will be at the race, be on the lookout for me, I would LOVE to say hello to you! I will  be live posting on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook during my trip so be sure to follow along!

There is a lot going on at Walt Disney World during this event such as EPCOT’s international Food and Wine festival and Mickey’s Not so Scary Halloween party (we are going Sunday!)

*You can still sign up for the kids races and the Villains Hollywood bash!

Snow tubing… indoors… in the Smokies! ❄️⛰️ #sponso Snow tubing… indoors… in the Smokies! ❄️⛰️ #sponsored

Pigeon Forge Snow is the perfect family activity no matter the time of year: real snow, comfy temps, and endless winter fun even in the middle of summer. From tubing and snow forts to sweet treats at the candy bar, this is one spot my kid never wants to leave.

Plus, it’s just minutes from Dollywood, the Titanic Museum, and Dolly’s Stampede, so it fits right into any Smoky Mountain trip.

❄️ Save this for your holiday trip to the Smokies, and comment the word Snow and I will send you my exclusive discount code right to your inbox!

So many people I know follow and like posts and st So many people I know follow and like posts and stories from content creators, but when it’s people they know in real life….forget about it. All of the sudden, we just don’t need or deserve the support. We just get lurkers. 💔 

Women, I encourage you in 2026 to find a table where women champion other women. And I encourage all the ladies here to be a girl’s girl. There is room for everyone, and we ALL need a little support, even those that look like they have it all together. 

Let’s commit to helping each other on AND offline. A simple smile, an “I love your dress” or “your kid did great in the school play” or “hang in there, you got this!” Goes a long way. 

I will never understand people going out of their way to intentionally bypass a person online or in real life. People matter. It’s a tough time of year for a lot of people, so let’s all act like the friends we claim to be and be there for each other however we can. ❤️

This one is great for busy folks who want to make a “special” drink without too much fuss. 🎄 

It’s literally just water frozen in the bottom of a glass with some rosemary taped in it. I waited a few hours the poured in some Prosecco and added in edible glitter (you can use multiple colors!) pretty and delicious, and keeps your drink cold! Cheers! 🥂 ❄️
