Certainty of death. Small chance of success. What are we waiting for? (comments welcome)

Still here, not dead, and I have been running! Nothing super exciting to report. I took 2 weeks completely off, then I've mostly been sticking to 30-45 min easy runs 5 days/wk. The first couple of runs were a little rough but things feel mostly back to normal now.

This post is mostly to share my Princess weekend costumes! Alas, only one dragon, but the way RunDisney recycles themes, I'm sure I'll have more opportunities for dragon Maleficent in the future.


5k - Mushu
The hat isn't finished, I just pinned the ears on for the picture, but I'm going to pack them separately and attach them when I get there so they don't get crushed. Not feeling super excited about the rest of this outfit, but I do have a stuffed Cri-kee on the way. Hopefully it arrives before I leave!

10k - Sylvie
I've had this one ready to go for a while but kept putting it off for other ideas. Sylvie is totally a Disney princess, though, so now seems like a good time to bring her out. We did a family Loki costume a few years ago, need to see if my son still has his alligator Loki.

Half Marathon - The Queen to @nancipants 's Snow White
This is the one I'm most excited about. The apple bag is way bigger than I expected, so I guess it will be holding my phone and fuel for the half. Should look great for pictures, though.

I have to figure out how to keep my hair out of the way because the back of this shirt is my favorite part.

I leave dark and early Wednesday morning, should be at the Expo Thursday morning, hoping to make it to the pre-race light pole meetups and Hurricane Hana's the Swolfin pool bar. It kind of feels like I just got home from Marathon weekend but I'm looking forward to being back and seeing people again!

Love the costumes!! Where did you find a Cri-kee? I may need one for my Wine & Dine 5K costume.
