runDisney released the medals for this year’s Tower Of Terror races. The Tower of Terror medal looks the same as last year except for the year and the ribbon. It has glow in the dark windows and the elevator goes up and down. The Happy Haunted 5K Trail Run Medal looks awesome! Now I wish I were getting up to run that one! It glows in the dark, too! Kids who run the the diaper dash, 100m, 200m 400m and 1-Mile races will receive the Donald Duck Kid’s Race Medallion.
I ran the Tower of Terror race last year for the first time and it was a fun race at night in the dark! Being just a 10-mile race (I say just because it isn’t a half marathon), it is about a 2 hour race that begins at 10:00 p.m. It was lots of fun but I had to plan my eating accordingly last year. This time I will also try harder to get in a nap prior to the race. I’ll be there with friends so it’s hard to say how the day will play out; but I’ll do my best! The expo was fun last year and there are opportunities to listen to the guest speakers at the expo also. This is a nice race because it isn’t super large. People get dressed up and have fun with the night race theme and you can also attend the Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party during that weekend. I am hoping to bump into Mike Rahlmann from the Be Our Guest Podcast as well as Mike and Michelle from the Mickey Miles Podcast while I am there, too!
Will you be running the Tower of Terror 10 miler this year? What will you wear for a costume? I need to think of some ideas for my Tower of Terror costume. I didn’t do anything rather exciting last year so I need to be more creative. Do you have any ideas to share?
In a future post I can share with you tips and tricks for training and preparing for this race. Stay tuned!
