After celebrating some of my favorite things, it only seemed appropriate to warn newbie runners about the some of my least favourite things related to running as well! #1) “Slimming Tanks”: At first, I thought this was a wonderful invention after deleting many race photos that are far from flattering. But, after trial and error, I quickly … Continue reading

Some of My Favourite Things
When I first started running, I thought all you needed was a pair of trainers and off you ran! Little did I know that a whole other running retail heaven existed! Admittedly, many purchases are more of the want nature than need. I thought it was important to highlight my top five purchases that I … Continue reading
Princesses Assemble to Smash the Half!
After the Disney Princess Half-Marathon, where I earned my Coast to Coast Challenge medal, I sadly hung up my tiara. It was over. An epic journey that started last year in Florida with my first half-marathon, and took me all the way to California and back again: in the books. And it was really over … Continue reading
2014 Princess Weekend: The Princess Half-Marathon
When we last left off, I was but a (sweaty) peasant who had completed the Enchanted 10K… It was time for a royal transformation from peasant to princess! Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo!

I have to admit, I have serious running blues and Disney “envyitis”. So, after a very hard winter, I was so excited when my … Continue reading
2014 Princess Weekend: The Expo
I’m baaaack! Royal status renewed. Coast to Coast medal earned. 3 races, 4 medals and 1 hard-earned glass slipper! Whew. Have you ever noticed that getting ready for a vacation and getting home from a vacation are tiring enough to make you need, well…a vacation? Coming home from Disney tends to mean piles of laundry, an … Continue reading
Vega One Nutritional Shake Review
I realize it has been more like ONE princess on the run since 2014! After experiencing a flood, fire and fraud in the last 8 weeks, I definitely feel like I have been running standing still. I miss spending time with my BRF’s running the indoor track. I miss even more the opportunity to run with … Continue reading
