Dopey Challenge

I revived my Ping and Mulan costumes for the 5K and 10K.  With improvements.  My friend was Merida for the 5K, which I also made.

I was Vanellope from Wreck it Ralph for the full marathon, Syndrome from the Incredibles for the half marathon.  Yes, I made the wig too.

Return of the Ruffle Butts

We were exploring princesses for the Expedition Everest race in 2015.  Snow White, Belle and Tiana.

Somehow I don't have a shot of the ruffle butts in action, but they were there.  :-)

Disney Avengers Race costumes

Someday I will catch up on the How I Did It photos for all of these costumes.  I have the photos, just never get around to writing the posts.  I think I am about five costumes behind at this point.

But here are final pics for my Avengers costumes.

For the 5k, I was old school Nick Fury.

I also did costumes for two of my friends.  One was Captain America, one was Loki.  We were all ruffle butts.  

All of our costumes had lots of Hidden Mickeys, which I will go into more detail on a future post.  

For the half marathon, I was Loki.  This costume was also full of Hidden Mickeys.

Lots of fun details to this one, which hopefully I will go into in a future post.  After I go into detail on the five other costumes I haven't done full posts on yet.  Sigh.  

Disney Costume Updates, for the impatient

For those that can't wait for my laziness to subside long enough to actually write a blog post, you can check out my race costume facebook album, which I just made public.

It is updated with far better regularity than the blog.

Disney Race Costumes

Hard at work on my costumes for the upcoming Avengers races in November!

Preview of race costumes to come

So I haven't put together full costume construction entries on these yet, but just a little taste of what is coming...

Here I am as Figment for the 2013 Wine and Dine Half Marathon.  Dreamfinder is riding on my shoulder as my companion.

More race photos here.


Here I am as Warrior Mulan, aka Ping, for the Enchanted 10K in 2014, complete with sword.

And as Matchmaker Mulan for the Princess Half Marathon 2014

I ran both races in one weekend as part of the Glass Slipper Challenge.  More race photos here

More detailed posts on all three costumes to come.  AND, I got into the Avengers 5k and Half Marathon in November, so already starting to plot the next costumes!!
