This post was originally part of Episode 178 released in October of 2015 and is more or less copy and pasted from that post. The audio, however, is a new take on the topic.

With Halloween being right around the corner, it only seemed fitting to offer my take on the idea of racing or running in a costume.

Honestly, I don’t know how anyone does it.

You say it’s fun, I’ll take your word for it.

But I’m not buying it for a second.

Am I Really This Old and Curmudgeon? Yes.

That said, I’m sure there will be many people suiting up soon for some type of Halloween run.

And with the Wine and Dine Half Marathon being right around the corner, Lord knows Disney runners are putting the finishing touches on their costumes as well. Read more

Quick Tip: Running in Costume

For the record, I’ll be running my 10k on Halloween and the Wine and Dine Half dressed as a runner.

Because I’m old.

And I no longer know how to have fun.

Best Costumes at the 2015 Princess Half Marathon

Earlier this morning, my wife completed here 2nd half by running the 2015 Princess Half Marathon at Walt Disney World.

This was her first runDisney race, but if I’ve learned one thing from my 9 runDisney events it’s that there are always a lot of runners that rock costumes during the race.

And the 2015 Princess Half Marathon was no exception.

I wish I had photos of the costumed runners to go with this list, but I was too busy being daddy/cheerleader to take many pictures. I did get this one early on.
