Tinker Bell Half Marathon

Today the newest RunDisney event is revealed on Facebook, The Tinker Bell Half Marathon a 13.1-mile course through Disneyland® Resort and the City of Anaheim, California.  I have been wanting to do a Disney run on the Disneyland resort but this is going to be a great challenge and adventure. I thought about taking the easy route for awhile by doing The Never Land Family Fun 5K but decided that I needed a challenge. I've been struggling to get back into shape after having my Little Buckaroo, now just over two years ago so I'm hoping the Sassy, feisty, and fun loving, Tinker Bell will sprinkle some of her fairy dust on me and get my booty in gear. The furthest I've ever run was 10 miles about four years ago (in shape and before the baby) and that run was painful...during and after. This run is scheduled for January 29th, 2012, giving me plenty of time to train. There will be events going on that whole weekend, including The Never Land Family Fun 5k and the Disney kids' races. I recuited my best buddy Jen to run with me. She has already given me the "I'm not dressing up in costume" warning...oh, she knows me too well. Now its time for me to step it up in the gym and buy a good jogging stroller. Wish me luck!
