52: Running Disney for Charity, the Jeff Galloway App, and the London Marathon

10/06/22 • 136 min

On this week's episode of the Rise and Run Podcast will be discussing running for a charity in relation to runDisney, charity fundraising, and ideas to reach your fundraising goals.

Before our charity discussion, we announce the winners of the Instagram contest to give away five Rise and Run Podcast tumblers. Entries were put in a spinning wheel and picked at random, and if a listener added a favorite episode, they received a bonus entry.
With a lot of our listeners running for a charity for the first time this year, we wanted to provide an episode on charity fundraisers to help fuel ideas to help you reach your fundraising goals for the upcoming runDisney season. Allie and Greg start the discussion with how and why they run for their respective charities. We are then joined by Peter Brookhart from The Brookhart Project. Peter and the gang discuss creative ways to fundraise for your charity bib.
Next, we are joined by Cheri Witt to discuss the new Jeff Galloway App that was released this week.
With the Chicago Marathon occurring this weekend, Jack reminds our listeners to check the course by watching her Chicago 2021 video plus many more on the Passport to Run YouTube channel which she does with Lexie.
On this weeks Race Report Spotlight we head across the pond to London for the 2022 TCS London Marathon were Rise and Runner’s Madge and Amie participated in this world major.

53: The Council of Costumes Returns, the Emotion of Marathons, and Disney with the Ducks

This week's episode intro is courtesy of Rise and Runner Tara. You can be picked to intro the show by clicking the Join The Conversation link and leaving us a intro.
We have a full house this week as we are joined by our friends Pamela and Kristen (Running in Makeup / Dare to Dopey) as members of our Council of Costumes . Fellow Council member Cindy was not able to join us for this recording .
The training schedule this week for Wine and Dine Weekend is 4 miles with one of them being the Magic Mile. Those running the Goofy or Dopey Challenges during Marathon Weekend have a 7 and 17 mile back-to-back weekend. Those "just" running the marathon have 17 miles on the plan. We get a training update from Lexi who had 26 miles on her schedule, so she ran the Towpath Marathon in Cleveland, Ohio as a catered training run. We then get into the range of emotions we run into (no pun intended) during a marathon.
We got our first look at the Princess Half Marathon Weekend medals that were released by runDisney this week. Listen to our takes on the medals and some of little things we noticed.

The Council of Costumes returns as we are joined by our friends Kristen (Running in Makeup / Dare to Dopey) and Pamela. The conversation covers multiple topics: costumes for Wine and Dine weekend, group costumes, alternate takes on the themes of races, and much more to get your costumes ready for race weekend.
We introduced a new segment this week that we will be featuring from time to time called Podcasts We Listen To. The inaugural podcast for this segment is Disney with the Ducks. We sit down and chat with the Ducks on how they started their podcast.
On this week's Race Report Spotlight we take a trip to the Windy City for the Chicago Marathon. We talk with Emily and Rob about running the Marathon and spectator support on the course.
