  My mom. 💜 Not only did she save my rear with last-minute ear making, but she also kept me hydrated with these lovely water cocktails! 💜 #runningcostume

  NEW #PrincessHalf video with lots of singing and dancing and rhyming!!
  🌸
  Oops, I thought I had already finished and uploaded last year’s #PHM mile marker video but turns out, I didn’t! So in the spirit of #betterlatethannever >>the link is in my bio!
  🌸
  Oh, and we’re giving this tradition a fresh twist next weekend although we’ve gotten some great suggestions for mile 12. We’ll have to use them! 💖

  A #waybackwednesday to my absolute toughest #PrincessHalf Marathon!
  🌸
  In 2017, I was still recovering from a #plantarplatetear - a total bugger of an injury. My doctor gave me clearance to walk, which I was grateful for, but oh my gosh. Talk about stressful!! I worried the entire time about being swept, I missed my friends, and I feared never being able to run again considering I’d been injured for five months by that time.
  🌸
  Despite my fears and worries, I forced myself to set them aside as often as possible and take in lovely moments, like getting this Gaston/Beast showdown picture with a gal on the course! (@celeste.l.b - is that you??) I also grabbed character photos when lines were short and managed a one-legged #joyfuljumpshot 💖 And because Gaston’s line was way too long, I also hauled my sweaty rear into #magickingdom afterward for a pic with him! 😍
  🌸
  So if you’re filled with worries and fears about next weekend’s #PHM … I understand!! Just please. Try to set them aside in order to take in your surrounding - the sights, the sounds, the camaraderie with fellow runners, EVERYTHING!! You don’t want to miss it!! 💖
  🌸
  Best of luck and if you’re curious about my toughest race, (and my emotional venting on the bus afterward,) a link for my race recap is in my profile!! xoxo!! 😘

  Don’t do it, Laura, don’t fall in the Princess Pit again! You know, when you run during #WDWmarathon weekend in January and think, hey … I just did the #goofychallenge so it’s okay to take a week off running. But then that week turns into two weeks. Then three. Then before I know it, the #PrincessHalf arrives and CRAP, I’m out of shape. 😣 Nope, not this year, no Princess Pit for me!
  🌸
  So for my fellow #wdwmarathon runners who are doing #PHM - be sure to avoid the pit! Get out there for a run or if you hate being cold like me, get on the treadmill! I ran a lovely three miles early this morning while watching a #wdwhalfmarathon recap by @runninginmakeup - a great way to get ready for the next #runDisney event and relive a past one!! ❤️

  #OhHappyDay indeed!! ❤️ #TBT to my favorite way to end a #Disney trip ~ at Animal Kingdom!! Pandora’s beauty always puts me at ease and fills me with peaceful creative spirit, especially after riding Flight of Passage! (Disney needs to make candles of FOP scents. I’d buy dozens!) It was such a joy spending time with @debh660 and @belle898 and I left feeling energized and ready to take on a new direction in my life. Sivako!! ⭐️
