Hi Everyone!

My hubby and I are doing the 2015 Coast to Coast Challenge and I would love to make some MFP friends that are currently on the same journey. Today is (I think) 211 days until our WDW 1/2 marathon. I am training slowly and have done 2 half marathons in the past. One really well and the other well....I don't like to talk about it.

I am a CA native and have to run at odd times as we work really far away from our home and my work area is not conducive to running.

Anyways. I love new friends and my long term goal in 2016 is to run five half marathons. I am not a natural runner so I think it is challenge that keeps me going. I run better now at 31 than I did at 16.

I hope to find some Disney runners!

    I'm not a current C2C'er but I earned mine last year doing Tink and Wine & Dine. After crossing that off the bucket list, I said I wouldn't do another Disney Run.... and then they announced the Star Wars Race at DL.

    I'm now signed up to do the Rebel Challenge :)

    If you haven't done a Disney race before you'll love it! Which SoCal race are you planning to do next year?

    We actually did the 2013 Disneyland 1/2 Marathon.

    We will be doing the 2015 Disneyland 1/2 marathon because we want to do the Dumbo Double Dare. I have to say we didn't think we would be doing anymore Disney races either (they are expensive!), but I wanted to cross off a bucket list item too. My hubby just deals with the dressing up. He loves to run, but could live without the costumes. We hope in 2016 to do all of the Rock 'n Roll half marathons in California. We actually live in the Bay Area, but will travel far for races. :)

    I love that SoCal is getting more Disney races. It seemed like Florida got all of the fun.

    If you are ever up here let me know and I'll root you on!

    Anyone happen to know (or at least a good projection) of the dates for 2015 DL half yet? I've searched, but only get this year's of course.

    DH and I would also love to do the DL half, then earn the coast to coast with the Wine and Dine. Seriously thinking about it. Will have to do some pricing as we live in KC MO and will obviously travel a good distance for both...

    Also have yet to do a half. Will be doing Des Moines in October and possibly one near our home in November. We've been training for a couple of months and our longest run so far has been 10 miles. And that about did me in!
