Happy Friday: How To Make Virtual runDisney More Realistic

I’ve said it many times before: unfortunately, I’m not all that big on virtual races. Whenever a runDisney race has been cancelled of late, I’ve always taken the refund rather than switch to the virtual version. But there are many who disagree with me, including the thousands who performed a virtual WDW Marathon Weekend race (or 2 or 4)...

In Which Jenn Runs The Virtual Parks Half Marathon

I’ve said this before, but just to reiterate: I’m not really a virtual race kinda gal. I only generally do them if a premium is REALLY good or if a race gets virtual-ized and it’s the only option available if I want to recoup my investment.

Back in January of 2017, some brave Walt Disney World Half Marathon registrants set a precedent: when your runDisney race is cancelled, you run it anyway on your own. And so last Sunday, the woulda-been date of the Star Wars Rival Run Half Marathon, I set out on the streets of San Juan to run 13.1 by myself. I...

JENN: You run at all last week? MOON: Nope! JENN: Restful! MOON: Nope! I miss running so much I’ve had TWO dreams in a row about going for a run. Two night in a row, rather. JENN: Any hope on the horizon? MOON: Perhaps. I don’t want to jinx myself. JENN: Okay, well, I’ll hope for you! You have a 5K coming up, right? MOON: Novemberishhhhh. Three miles...
