Identical Twins Run Together To Remember




Leah & Malinda are identical twins but opposite runners.



Malinda is the "go with the flow" slower 1/2 who prefers to tweet, instagram & run marathons (4:00:57).



Leah is the "garmin obsessed" faster 1/2 who prefers to run as many races as possible while qualifying for the 2013 Boston Marathon (3:35:36).

Michael, Leah's brother-in-law, was diagnosed with cancer as a child. Michael kept fighting cancer with his inspiring Irish spirit, so it was very bittersweet when he died on St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 2003.

The twins' grandmother, affectionately know as GG, was diagnosed with cancer on Friday, July 13, 2012 and died on Monday, July 16, 2012. The twins are still grieving her sudden and unexpected death, but they find solace in running in her memory.

TWINS RUN 2GETHER in memory of Michael & GG, fighting childhood cancer, one race at a time!

Disney's 5th Annual Princess Half Marathon

I was extremely fortunate to attend the 2012 runDisney Princess Half Marathon Meet Up in EPCOT. The morning began with a 2 mile run around EPCOT (with lots of Team Sparkle!) and ended with an appearance by a very special guest, Princess Minnie Mouse! :-) 
Check out my Princess Half Meet Up videos on my "TWINS RUN in our family" Facebook Page, including Jeff Galloway's advice on how to deal with race disappointment!
Team "TWINS RUN in Our Family" will run the 2013 Princess Half Marathon together to support Alex's Lemonade Stand for Childhood Cancer!
Malinda will run her 4th!
Will you register for Disney's Princess Half Marathon?
Will you run your 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th?
We can't wait to see you there!

I LOVE to runDisney in costume! :-)


I love running in costume during runDisney races!

If you've never run in costume before, the runDisney 5K is the perfect opportunity for a "test run" in costume before the Half Marathon or Marathon!

I'll run as the Queen of Hearts during the Tangled 5K on Saturday, Feb 25 and I hope to see the "real" Queen of Hearts again! :-)

If you don't feel comfortable running in a full costume, why not try TEAM SPARKLE running skirts? Here is a link to some awesome costume ideas by TEAM SPARKLE! :-)
