What I love too is the fact that people are incorporating the podcast or, like, Run Disney into their-

Oh, that's cool

My name's AJ.

And I'm Erica.

Welcome to our show where we talk all things runDisney.

Yes.

And today, Erica, we're talking all things costuming-

Yes, I was dodging some kids just because they were there, but it was the adults walking three or four across.

So it was very Disney-esque in that type-- in that part of my run because it was very much like the five across that people do walking and usually walking on the runDisney racecourse.

But I had to slow way down for that, and so it changed my overall intervals.

But my overall walking pace is faster than what I programmed in.

So we've been back in the groove for a bit.

And fall also marks the beginning of the run Disney season, at least in my head.

I feel like, you know, it's when I think about it kind of beginning, getting ready and preparing and stuff like that.

So today I want to talk about how it feels to have a plan, to have something that you've decided to do, told people you're going to do, committed to doing, and then discovering that that plan doesn't really work for you anymore, or also sometimes feeling like scared or unsure of whether or not it's something that you can currently handle, even though maybe you thought you could when you when you set it up.

I think this this very aptly applies to run Disney events, I think, as well, because, I mean, as you know, you have to register for those things like nine months ahead of time.

So, for instance, like if you register for Dopey, you do that and then it's like nine months later that the event happens.

So, So I think with things like that, where you make a decision to do something and then the time that the thing actually happens is really far removed from that decision.

It can kind of put you in a position where things change and you maybe don't feel as prepared as you did when you or you thought you would be maybe when you made the plan or maybe your circumstances change.

Thank you for coming back.

Today, we're going to talk about one of my favorite topics when it comes to run Disney.
