Just because you’re a runner, doesn’t mean you can’t have a little fun, wearing costumes for running. Some of our favorite races are perfect for running in costume, in fact – many of them actually encourage it.
Any of the Disney running races are perfect examples… the Disneyland Half Marathon, Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon, Walt Disney World Marathon, Tinker Bell Half Marathon, Disney’s Princess Half Marathon are all ideal opportunities for wearing costumes for running… especially Disney running costumes.
Gearing up for your own runDisney event? Trying to find (or make) your very own costumes for running? Luckily, we have plenty ideas for running costumes. Consider this your very own Disney running costume guide.
Costumes for Running {DIY Tinker Bell}
Are you powered by pixie dust? Creating your very own Tinker Bell running costume is pretty quick & easy. Here’s what you’ll need…
* {one} lime green tank top
* {one} lime green Team Sparkle skirt
* {one} pair of lime Team Sparkle green fairy wings
* {one} white pom pom (for your shoes)
* optional: lime green running shoes (while they aren’t necessary, lime green running shoes really are the “icing on the cake”)
Assembling the DIY Tinker Bell running costume is pretty self-explanatory… the wings & shoe pom pom simply scream “Tink!” But, if you want to take it one step further, try re-creating Tinker Bell’s signature bun. & Finally, voilà! A Disney-inspired running costumes DIY style.
Have fun creating your own costumes for running! For even more costumes for running ideas, check out our entire Disney running costume guide.
Fun!!! Tinkerbell + sparkle skirt!!! Awesome.
Are the Nike running shoes you show Men’s? I tried to find them in that color (Apple Green) and I only saw them (on ebay) in Men’s. Any other green running shoe ideas?
I believe the shoes we featured were Nike Frees. I’d suggest googling for green or lime green women’s running shoes. Nike Frees are usually available in LOTS of colors. Or, you can even make custom colored shoes using Nike ID: http://nikeid.nike.com/nikeid/index.jsp
Hope that helps!
