PHM 2015-In Pursuit of Cupcakes While Running in Glass Slippers

[momabaarjo]

I have been doing some serious soul searching the last few days regarding WDW Marathon weekend. While I definitely want to do a full at WDW, it was also very important for me to have my husband & kids at my first full marathon. I have chosen Rt 66 in late Nov as my first full marathon as it is close to home & they do a special "My First Marathon" medal. Rt 66 was also where I did my first half marathon in 2013. Here is where the soul searching has come in...I do not know how my body will react to a full. 26.2 miles is no joke & while I really, really want to run Goofy (1/2 & full) in 2015, I am making the decision to hold off on that until 2016. Looking at multiple websites & talking to many people the last few days, everyone is suggesting it might be too much, too quick. So, I am looking at the half & possibly 10K during Marathon weekend in Jan, then I can still be good to go for a full weekend at PHM.

I think it would be amazing for you to have your family there when you cross the finish line at your first marathon...a special moment and more reason to be proud of mom. A great memory for them...and Goofy aint going anywhere anytime soon!

Cupcake Friday
(as if Friday is not sweet enough)

Peanut Butter Chocolate Cupcake
Mainstreet Bakery (aka Starbucks)

​

I am still not overly thrilled with Starbucks being on Mainstreet...but of course I am not a coffee addict so the draw of Starbucks has always been one of those cosmic wonders to me. But that is not what we are here to debate, instead we are hear to drool all over our keyboards at the next cupcake that could make our PHM CELEBRATION CUPCAKE CRAWL.

I have never had this cupcake, so we will have to leave it to the original Disney cupcake diva at a Pinch of Pixie Dust, the Pixie Dust Girl....

and to the people at Disney Food Blog.

I like peanut butter and I like chocolate...so maybe? Thoughts?

I am like you, I love peanut butter and chocolate, but this sounds a little sweet! We will have to split it in bites!

I think that this sounds like a great opportunity for you and having your family there to cheer you on! The 1st marathon medal is like icing on... we... the cupcake

Damien and I figured out our costumes for the races!!! Now just to come up with ways to put them together while trying to get everything else together- I have to come up with a to do list!

Costumes are a big part of the fun! Excited to see what you have come up with.

I think I may have my 5K & 10K costumes picked out...

Wow! Y'all are really ahead of the game! Lots of time to get it ready. I ran in a Raw Threads Rapunzel shirt and I really loved it. May have to go that route next time too.

Ok ladies. My 11 month DVC window opened today. We are debating taking kids so we booked the whole week at AKL. If I end up going solo I will just be there for the weekend.

I love the raw threads stuff...is it as soft once you wash it. Thinking of getting Ab the Cindy shirt...

YAY...jealous that you are booking. I would love to do DVC but I have to wait until August to book anything!

I really do love the raw threads stuff, just wish it was not so pricey!

Can you not book your home resort, or is your home off property? If the family doesn't come I may be looking for a roommate! Lol

I am not DVC, but have rented points before and I love doing that. Sadly (or maybe not so sadly) no way I can rent points right now...we are headed to Europe in July and all my budget is tied up with that trip. Hey if the family does not go, you might just get some roommate offers!

I was just looking at Raw Threads today- did you see their Princess 19.3 hoody? I love it. Looks like a sale today only! I am contemplating... I have a few more hours to think on it....................

Eeek! I hadn't seen the sale. I have two shirts in my bag. Trying to decide which one I need.

Glad I could help enable. That's what Dis Runnin' Friends are for.

Lol yep well I bought both. Lol figured what I don't use at TOT I'll use at PHM

Well now, what ones did you buy? I really want that 19.3 Princess One but keep thinking, what happens if I buy it and for some reason I can't get into the Glass Slipper Challenge?!?!?!

 

[Tinker326]

Anyone who has ordered from Raw Threads know why everytime I try to add something to my cart, even if I choose my size it says "See Product Options" and won't add it? I can not figure out what I'm doing wrong?!?
