Runners heading to Disney World for Princess Half Weekend: check your calendar!

You get a festival, you get a festival, we all get a festival this year! 

Usually the PHM misses out on both Flower and Garden and The Festival of the Arts, but this year, the timing is perfect. 

Theresa just spent some time at WDW and has the rundown of the festival must dos. Plus we have confirmed dates to say good bye to all things Muppets in Hollywood Studios. And we talk a little Wine and Dine race weekend themes.

You know you love a good runDisney episode, and we have one for you today. 

Jane and Patty talk about the races, the timing chip drama, and the fact that we have gone 3/3 races without Duffy on the course. (recorded before the Marathon so who knows if that dude will pop up!) 

Happy 2025, Disney fans- can't wait to see you at the races this year!

No, but you should see your faces.... 

We're recapping the kickoff to the runDisney race season, the Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend. 

Jane and Patty ran the 5 and 10K, Theresa ran the 5K and her first Half. 

Big takeaways: MORE MUPPET RACES ARE NEEDED. runDisney, Josh D'Amaro, are you listening? You should!

This is an episode from the No-Guilt Fangirls podcast vault that we recorded in 2019. Except for talking a bit about the old course, the info is still relevant, however. 

Meet a Perfect Wine & Dine Runner, Megan! 

What does that mean? It means she runs the Wine & Dine Half Marathon every year at Walt Disney World—even the unfortunate weather years.

Megan tells all today and explains why she keeps running Wine & Dine Half Weekend- and if she has plans to keep doing it or not!

You can find her - and the #PerfectSpatula on Instagram at @meganightmare

Theresa is back this week and she's got all the details about D23 Expo. Including the fact that it's no longer called D23 Expo (insert eye roll)

We're discussing our feelings on the new parks news and what we think will work and where we hope it gets built. Shout out to Josh D'Amaro cause we know he listens- we have suggestions, bestie!

Disneyland Halloween is our favorite- and when runDisney added the Halloween Half Marathon Weekend, we knew we had to be there!

Jane and Patty recap the Oogie Boogie Bash and the expo and races in this weeks episode. 

Join us (and our slight ADHD) for this week's episode filled with happiness, fun and magic. 

It's THAT time of year--- way too early for Halloween for normal people but way too late for those of us who love Disney Hallowen 365. 

Jane and Patty are recapping Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party at Walt Disney World and talk a little bit about the Disneyland Halloween Half Marathon coming up next week.

We gotta talk about it...

Changes are coming and we of course have some thoughts. Also, why didn't Disney World give Rock N Roller Coaster a nice Taylor Swift/Muppets Mayhem overlay? 

(Go ahead and listen to the State of the Pod episode if it feels like its been a hot minute- cause it has!)

I forgot to give a heads up where we planned to add the advertising, so here's for the skippers who want to know when its coming:

• around the 20 minute mark
• around the 42 minute mark

Kinda feels like people blame Taylor Swift for everything these days, but in our case, it's somewhat true. As true fangirls, we make no apologies. But we do feel like we owe an explanation (because unlike Rep TV, there will be one!) 

So here it is.

We took a long, extended break from the podcast for multiple reasons, and yes, one of them was legit Taylor Swift. Health issues, life traumas, and a little bit of post TTPD ADHD all made up for our absence. 

But we're back- and we're stronger than ever in our Disney parks love.

Joining Patty today are Alicia and Hope, two runDisney Princess Half Marathon runners and podcast listeners!

We're talking about why we didn't love the 5K and why both ladies loved the 10K. Alicia also gives the half marathon some high praise.

TLDL: might want to consider training for the longer races if you are looking for more space to run and great character ops! A Princess first (?)--- rave reviews for Princess runner etiquette!
