Hi friends! I’m heading to Walt Disney World for the weekend to check out the Christmas decorations, see the Candlelight Processional with Trace Adkins (I’ve met him! Check my Instagram!), and of course, see Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

This means I’m taking the weekend off (!) from running and posting my Sunday training update, but stay tuned for Monday’s runDisney news recap.

Be sure to follow along on my Instagram to see what I’m up to this weekend. Hope you all have magical weekends lined up too! Talk to you again soon.

Something in me told me to apply for the 2018 Chicago Marathon. I haven’t even completed/attempted my first marathon, and yet I was drawn to the idea that Chicago would be my next big race. I know what you’re thinking right now, “You’re Will Run for Disney!

Hi Friends! Believe it or not, we’re less than ONE MONTH AWAY from the 2018 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend – 25th Anniversary – Presented by Cigna. I am so excited!

Hi everyone! I wanted to share my photos with you from my Thanksgiving weekend (apologies for my delay- December is just a whirlwind!)

I was fortunate enough to spend the rest of the holiday weekend with Tommy and his family in New York. Every year it seems New York City steps up their holiday window display game, and this year was no exception. In celebration of the 80th anniversary of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Saks Fifth Avenue dedicated their incredible holiday window display to the film.
