Donald Duck Running Costume Assembly

Assembling your Donald Duck inspired running costume is pretty self-explanatory...

Embrace the Sparkle with Sparkle Athletic Running Skirts:

The first step to creating the perfect runDisney costume is to select your Sparkle Athletic skirt. Capture the essence of Donald Duck by choosing a white Sparkle Athletic skirt! The shimmering fabric will add the perfect touch of sparkle. Plus, the lightweight fabric of the skirts will keep you comfortable throughout your race.

Find a Magical Top:

Complete your Donald Duck inspired look by selecting a royal blue running top to pair with your chosen Sparkle Athletic skirt. Consider something that is moisture-wicking, & we'd suggest you opt for a design that allows for ease of movement while running. 

Finish Off Your Look with a Running Visor:

One of our visors is the perfect way to complete your runDisney costume. The visor will not only shield your eyes from the sun but also add a touch of sparkle and magic to your running attire.

Donald Duck Running Costume Accessories

No runDisney costume is complete without a sprinkle of fairy tale magic. Consider adding an accessory (or two) to elevate your running ensemble:

• matching yellow running shoes (while they aren’t necessary, matching running shoes really are the “icing on the cake”) - if you can't find yellow running shoes (or prefer wearing your favorite pair), you can cover your shoes in yellow KT Tape, or opt for yellow shoelaces to add a pop of color.
• {one} pair of yellow compression socks
• {one} pair of white gloves
• red bow tie
• yellow buttons - use two yellow white buttons, or make them out of felt, & attach them to your skirt or tank (mimicking the buttons on Donald's shirt)
