Since last week’s post about how to prepare your body for a Disney vacation, I have had some folks ask me about how to get started with a walking program. The biggest piece of advice I have is just that: have a plan. But, which plan do you pick? There are tons of beginner walking …
I was recently reminded that I never formally introduced you guys to our new base of operations. I managed to keep the whole process a secret (even if I did throw out a teaser or two) leading up to the day of the big reveal. Then just like that, it was ours, and well… we …
So you’ve saved for a year (or more) with help from the cool app you downloaded to your mobile device, had monthly planning/budget meetings, even shared your fancy spreadsheet with family members. Tickets are purchased, resort and dining reservations are made, fast passes are booked, then ultimately the family is loaded and you are off …
One of these things is not like the other… singing yet? đŸ™‚ Ah, the sage wisdom of Mr. Rogers. Yesterday, Sandy and I ran in the Sunshine Run 10k in Austin. This is our second year to do the race, and we really enjoy the event, and appreciate the hard working YMBL & Sunshine Camps …
It seems I have been here before, adrift in a directionless quagmire of infinite proportions. Okay, well maybe it’s not that bad, but sometimes I get into a funk and the wheels just seem to spin. I do a little of this and a little of that, but nothing very wholeheartedly. I’m sure we all …
Sandy, my principle researcher, has been trying to help us find ways to increase our race paces, or in layman’s terms, SPEED UP!

Just a quick post to let everyone know that in the coming weeks I will begin sharing the latest news, product releases, promos, and special offers from my Etsy shop in this new category. This will also be my outlet to share news from the apparel design world, the latest Disney (and runDisney) fashion news… …
We’ve all heard the saying “motivation can come from anywhere”, well I’m here to tell you that no truer words have ever been spoken. Like many of us, the end of 2018 found me in a burned out slump of epic proportions. I hadn’t trained consistently since Wine & Dine in November, even though Sandy …
A few weeks ago I mentioned that exciting things were afoot at camp fatman. Since I’m not quite ready to let that cat totally out of the bag (patience is a virtue my friends), I thought it would be fun to share some backstory… after all, our past experiences are just stepping stones to our …
As some of you may have noticed, I have been AWOL for a few weeks on the blog, and for the most part, social media as a whole. No, I’m not boycotting anything (although the constant political “BS” on Facebook is rather overwhelming/depressing at times). I’ve just been thinking a lot about where this blog was …
