“You want egg salad, I’ll give you egg salad!” What the character of Shepherd Wong has to do with today’s Friday Super Happy Fun and Smile-Time Variety Hour, I haven’t the foggiest. I just needed an intro. So sue me. This is my fourth post of the week, and I’m starting to feel a little…
The 2015 Disneyland 10K represented the third time this particular race had been run, as well as being the start of the third Dumbo Double Dare Challenge, in which participants had to complete this 10K as well as the 2015 Disneyland Half Marathon the following day.
