One More Run, the Podcast

We all have some fear about the Balloon Ladies, but this week we're shifting our focus away from stress and worry and onto what matters. Whether you're running your first race, your 50th, stopping for characters, or trying to complete a new distance, runDisney races should be fun and magical. This week we're chatting with Dr. Ali Marty (run coach, DPT and host of the Running to the Castle Podcast) about the Balloon Ladies and the minimum pace required at these races.

If you're new to runDisney this is YOUR episode! Actually, there's a lot in this week's show for everyone... whether you're trying to prepare for your first race or your 50th, you're gonna love it.

We also asked our friend (from The Castle Run) to join us to not only talk about her new book called The runDisney Companion, but to also help us create a Top 10 List of the things you DON'T want to do at a race weekend. It was a ton of fun, but also super practical and helpful.

Along with defining all the words, phrases and things you need to know about these races, we call on a friend to help us learn more about Club runDisney... something y'all have been asking for us to cover for a while now.

We hope you enjoy and learn a few things!

The runDisney race announcers all bring their strengths to a race morning. If Carissa is the encouragement, Riley is the inspiration and John is the sarcasm, then consider Tracy the comedy. She brings so much joy and laughter to the start and finish line of every runDisney race!

We were lucky enough to secure her for this week's episode of the podcast and it's packed full of fun stories and laughs. Plus, we pulled off a pretty big surprise that she never saw coming!
