“Cinderella…proof that a new pair of shoes can change your life”
************************
Hey there and
to my pre-trip report. If you think you're ready let's dive right on in shall we?
So even though you don't know anything about me, you should know that my life is in a pretty good place right now (good job, good friends, etc.), but it’s sort of static – and a girl’s got to have dreams you know – particularly ones that can be achieved in a somewhat timely fashion. And while there are tons of things I hope to accomplish in life it’s going to take me a few years to get there and I really want to complete something NOW.
So what’s a girl to do? What is a girl to do?
Become a Master Alligator Wrangler? Umm…well…I am rather attached to my limbs…
Win the Nobel Peace Prize? Do you think we could solve all diplomacy issues with a little faith, trust, and pixie dust?
Complete a Half Marathon? Well I am pretty adept at walking – how hard can running be?
Okay…okay…so maybe I never seriously considered the first two options but I really do think the world would be a whole lot better off with a sprinkling of pixie dust. If you agree, and I mean come on you totally do, try and spread a little magic in your life in the coming days. Perhaps by taking a leaf out the Disney Princess Primer and bursting into spontaneous song…
Anyway getting back on topic I’m really becoming attached to the idea of completing a half marathon, and not just any half marathon, the Disney Princess Half Marathon – mostly just to say I did, but also because it’s a race...in Disney…themed around princesses! And hey, maybe I’ll become a bit healthier in the process. What’s not to love?
If you like what you’ve read so far come join me on this journey as I dream of and prepare for the Disney Princess Half Marathon in February 2014. Luckily, in true Disney fashion I won’t be undertaking this journey alone. My sister and I (for the purposes of this trip report let’s just call us Anastasia and Drizella) are going to be training partners and running this thing together. Hopefully we’ll be able to convince Lady Tremaine (our other sister) and Cinderella (my best friend) to join us – which they totally will once they see how much fun we are having. And if you’re up to the task readers, perhaps you’ll be my online support group as I work through the trials and tribulations of training – I mean seriously I’m going to need all the love and support I can get.
So while my new shoes might not be a pair of glass slippers (they may look fantastic at a ball, but they’d be pretty impractical at the gym), I’m hoping they change my life just the same.
