From participant shirts and finisher medals to on-course hydration, snacks, race photos, transportation, and even those iconic marathon Mickey ears, we cover all the perks that come with your entry. We also clear up common misconceptions, like whether your race fee includes theme park tickets or free photo downloads.

If you're not sure what a run club is or you don't think you're a strong enough runner to keep up, THIS is the interview you want to listen to! We also talk about the upcoming Peachtree City Classic 5K and 15K that will be held October 18 just south of Atlanta... it's one of the best and most beautiful courses you can run in the southeast!

We share our own costume hits and misses, practical tips for shopping, accessories that make your outfit pop, and lessons we’ve learned about comfort, porta-potties, and race-day weather. You’ll also hear about our first race as Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, our most recent Maleficent-inspired look, and how costumes can match your personality (and your running goals). Whether you’re all-in on sparkle or just thinking of adding themed ears, this episode will help you find the right costume approach for your runDisney race!

If you’re new to runDisney, the race itself isn’t the only challenge—you also have to figure out all the terms, phrases, and traditions that come with it. In this episode, we break down the essential vocabulary of runDisney, from corrals and proof of time to gear check, photopass and the balloon ladies. We share what everything really means and why it matters! Whether you’re gearing up for your first 5K or tackling a challenge weekend with multiple races, this guide will help you show up confident, prepared, and ready to enjoy the magic of runDisney.

Think you’re not a runner? Think again. In this episode, we mix things up with a lighthearted game of runner’s bingo—sharing all the quirky and surprising ways running sneaks into everyday life. From knowing exactly where every public restroom is in town to going to bed before the sun goes down—we cover it all.

Along the way, we share personal stories, talk training updates (including a tough but rewarding 11-miler), and even dive into new fueling experiments. Whether you’re chasing a PR or just trying to get through the miles, this episode will remind you that running is more than workouts—it’s a lifestyle full of little victories, funny habits, and lessons that stick with you both on and off the course.
