Tinkerbell Half Marathon 2014

As we are getting closer to the 2015 Tinkerbell Half Marathon I figured I might as well finish my review from last year. I wrote about the Expo here. I was up bright and early and out the door with time for.p a quick selfie. 

It was a bit cold at 4:30 in the morning. 

With the thousands of people participate in the Disneyland half marathon the corrals are always a bit crowded. 

I was lined up right in front of the Paradise Pier Hotel. 

I always have a banana with peanut butter before a Half Marathon. 

I couldn't actually see the stage but  there was a big screen where I could watch what was going on. 

There's Tink!  It's almost to to FLY!

As we inched toward the starting line we could see the stage. 

The first few miles were inside the parks. 

Small World selfie!  They still had the Christmas lights up!

On to California Adventure. 

Through Car's Land. 

And then on to the streets of Anaheim north of Disneyland. 

Coming down the home stretch!

2 hours and 59 minutes later I finished!

We were given a bottle of Powerade, water and a snack box. 

I always like the variety of items in the snack boxes. 

I didn't even notice the wings as I ran. 

I always take a picture of my Disney medals with our family brick. 

I'm all signed up to run Tink 2015. I've got to keep my legacy status. 

Go Tape

A few months ago I was given the opportunity to try Go Tape.  

I (thankfully) haven't had any aches or pains to try it out on but after completing a 9 mile run last week I was having a really bad pain under my 2nd toe.  

I Goggled all sorts of home remedies from different exercises to these little pads that you stick inside your shoes.  Nothing helped!  It was painful to walk, let alone run. I was determined to go for a run today since I have the Disneyland Half Marathon coming up very soon!  

Then I remembered the Go Tape!

I followed an online tutorial for "ball of foot" application and went for my run.  I'll spare you the pictures of my foot.

I'm happy to say I ran 3.1 miles and my foot feels good!  I didn't notice the tape on my foot as I ran and quite a few hours and a shower later and it's still on.  

I wasn't sure how kinesiology tape even worked but there's a great write up on the Go Tape website.  Click here to learn all about how it works. HERE

I definitely plan to buy more Go Tape in the future.  It comes in a few different colors and I really want the pink.  

Have you ever tried kinesiology tape?  For what type of issue?  Did it work?  Let me know in the comments below.  

Jewelry In Candles Clean Cotton Tart Reveal

I switched out my tart fragrance for a new one. This time I'm melting Clean Cotton. It's smells really good. It smells like someone is doing laundry. 

You can see which tart has the jewelry. 

After cramming it in the tart warmer, I let it melt 

I grabbed my tweezers and got the little foil packet out. 

Inside the foil is a little plastic bag. 

I got a ring!

We have so many new scents and you get to pick your jewelry type and ring size. 

Fred Water

I was really excited to come home and find this box waiting for me.

My Fred Water arrived!  

What's Fred water, you ask?  Well it's water in a bottle that fits in your pocket.  And Fred’s flask-shaped bottles are BPA and phthalate-free, making them safe to use and refill.

I first heard about Fred water a few months ago when I was told that the bottles fit great in the leg pocket of a Sparkle Skirt. 

Unfortunately Fred Water is not available in any stores close to me but I contacted the company and they were nice enough to hook me up with this little care package. 

I received a full 20 oz bottle, an empty 13.5oz bottle (yes they sell empty bottles), extra caps and stickers. 

Right after I put the 20oz bottle in the fridge to cool off I stuck a Fred sticker on my sewing machine cover, where all the cool stickers get stuck. 

The 13.5oz bottle is a great fit in the Sparkle Skirt pocket. 

With the skirt down it's a bit noticeable but at least I don't have to carry it in my hands.  

It also fits great in the back pocket of a pair of jeans. 

If you're wondering how Fred Water tastes, well it tastes like nothing. But that's a good thing in my opinion!  

I really like that Fred Water cares about the planet and is doing its part to keep plastic bottles out of the landfills by encouraging people to reuse their bottles.

Jewelry in Candles Cinnamon Tarts Reveal

I've had a few packs of tarts for a while but I didn't have a tart warmer to melt them in.

I found this one at Wal-Mart for $10.00. It doubles as a night light. 

I decided to try the Cinnamon scent. These tarts are so huge I literally had to cram it in to fit. 

Here's a few photos as it was melting. 

This one smells so good!  It smelled like a was baking cinnamon rolls!

I used a pair of tweezers to grab the little foil pack and cleaned it off with a paper towel. 

After unwrapping the foil the jewelry was visible inside a plastic bag. 

I got a rose gold colored necklace!

I have to say, I really love these tarts and candles. They are 100% soy wax so they burn long and clean.
