Hey everyone! I haven't been on in a while, but am so happy to see all the amazing Christmas decor pictures! Looking forward to being back in January for the Tinker Bell Half!
They are collector cards kind of like baseball cards but are Disney. You order them through disneycollectorcards.com. Each pack has 8 cards in it this Series has 96 cards in it. You receive 2 packs in the mail every 4-6 weeks. Right now I believe only D23 members can order, but starting September 4th anyone will be able to order. - VikkiMouse182.2 #1870 8-28-12 10:46AMLike Reply
Only 27 more days until the Disneyland Half Marathon! How is everyone's training going? Mine has kind of fallen apart these last couple of weeks, but it won't atop me from having a great time at a great race.
I hope everyone is doing well with their training for the Half Marathon or the 5K. - VikkiMouse182.2 #1870 8-7-12 9:41AMLike Reply

I feel the same way. Life has been so crazy lately that my training just isn't going as well as planned. - VikkiMouse 182.2 #1870 8-7-12 9:47AM
Yeah, I'm going on vacation next week for a few weeks. I have no idea how I am going to be able to run long distance. - VfxGenie 1399.9 #57 8-7-12 10:11AM
If you don't mind me asking, how are y'all training? I just finished Bridge to 10K program and am not sure where to go from here. - kss4tink216.8 #1426 8-7-12 1:37PMLike Reply
I have a bunch of different books with different training ideas and schedules in them, so I just figure out which one will work best with the time I have to train. Or I make up my own based on multiple schedules. And if I get really lazy my treadmill has training programs on it. - VikkiMouse 182.2 #1870 8-7-12 2:08PM
Thanks, will have to check out some books now :). - kss4tink 216.8 #1426 8-7-12 2:20PM

Since there are only 74 days until the Disneyland Half Marathon I thought I'd see how everyone's training is going! I started off stong but have been really bad these past few weeks, I'm hoping to get back in the groove this week.

I'm not doing the DL half this year, but I'm in better shape, endurance-wise, than I have been in at least 3 years! Just jogged 4 miles without stopping to walk.

Hey Ladies, I just discovered these Dooney & Bourke Tinker Bell purses that will be for sale this weekend at the Expo for the Tinker Bell Half Marathon!
I'm trying to decide if I should try wearing wings while running the Tinker Bell Half Marathon. I want to, but I'm worried it will slow me down too much...what do you guys think?
I don't mind looking strange...I might try this tomorrow & see how many people stop & stare at me :-) - VikkiMouse182.2 #1870 1-12-12 6:41PMLike(1) Reply
