    89 days to go!!! How is everyone's training going? I have a pace calculation 10k this Sunday! And by that I'm hoping to get a good idea of my pace under race conditions. Also hoping to get a good enough time to move ahead in the corrals.

    Best of luck to everyone!

    I signed up also when they allowed us during the Princess Half sign up.

    I want a costume too.

    Last year... OMG! The cutest costumes, guys as well and even some grannies that were running the half. A lot of Tinkerbell Fairy Wings flapping around.

    I'm still still looking for an ensemble...

    Training is going good! I actually have a long run planned for tomorrow.

    10k pace indicates that I'll run a sub 3 hour half but not by much. But that's ok since it's Disney and it's all about the experience not the pace. Now I can start my half training in earnest! 6 mile long run this Sunday and building... The big jump is in my week day mileage. That has to climb before my long run does. I've made wonderful progress since I started running again in July and I can't wait to see how far I can go.

    Less than a month away, how is everyone doing? With the onset of winter and frigid temps my workouts have had to move indoors. Not my favorite way but better than nothing. Did a 10 mile power walk dvd this morning. If you haven't gotten the email you can print off your waivers now, just go to the run disney site and under Tink they have a tab for waivers. On your waiver you have your bib number then you can click the tab for corral placement and find out where you are going to be.Keep up the hard work, this is going to be fun!

    It was awesome! I had my best run ever! Completed it in 2:12:26, which was better than last year's time.

    Congrats to you on finishing!!!

    You'd be an awesome training partner since we're close in time :) I was 2:10:21 - heading to princess next month ! So excited - not so excited they are moving the Tink to may next year...
