2016 Tinkerbell Expo

The expo was basically an expo! I was able to get out of work early and headed down right at 5. It took forever to get on the freeway but then it was regular traffic. I packed dinner in the car ( pasta and yogurt) and was able to finish it before getting on the freeway. I got down in a bit over an hour and dealt with parking. There wasn't expo parking (I saw it when I left) so I made the block and parked at Mickey and friends which took 15 min. I walked over to the expo and used the restroom before getting my bibs. 

I was there forever haha. I got my 5k bib, then got my challenge bib. I also found my name on the legacy wall and got my gift, then got my preorder jacket. 15 min later and I was off to get my shirts. 

After that I went to sparkle athletic to get wings, got a pic with Jeff Galloway, and bought dumbo shoes I'm going to use for the parks, and then stopped at KT tape because there was no way before I made my way to official merchandise. I spent way too much time debating sweatybands and ended up with two. I had just enough time to grab some free goodsense and then since there weren't any drinks, I stopped at ESPN for a quick margarita. 

I went to the hotel to check in and unpack and get ready. I finally got in bed at 9:30 with a 3:15 wake up call. 

Overall I liked the expo and liked the time I went. It was uncrowded but still had merchandise (not wine glasses). The driving down from work is stressful as it makes for a late bedtime but I was able to sleep and relax after the 5k and felt find the next day. ​

What's the last expo you went to? Find anything good?

Disney expos are in a class of their own-people lose their mind so you would probably really not like it haha. I have noticed a trend of races not letting you pick up bibs for other people

I still HAVE to do this race! Seems like so much fun. Disney expos used to be SOOO exciting to me but, lately, I just find them exhausting and overwhelming and stressful, lol.

I have found that going when they arent too busy-afternoon and before they close-and I love them again! You can walk around and get everything quickly. and yes-come to this race soon!
