2016 New Balance runDisney Collection Released
Many of my obsessed runDisney friends (who shall go unnamed) and I have been impatiently waiting for the news that was finally released today from runDisney and New Balance.
On December 18 we were teased with a Tweet from New Balance asking which characters will star in the 2016 runDisney New Balance collection. My phone started chiming with my friends asking me if I saw the clues and what did I think they would be! We couldn’t wait to find out! My guess was Dumbo, Belle and Ariel.

But then time went on and we are just three days away from day 1 of the WDW race weekend and we were starting to get antsy jumping every time our Twitter chirped. Well, maybe I was the only one who was. Finally just before 3:00 p.m. the collection photographs were released. Again my friends were making sure I got the news. Thanks everyone!
So here they are… Dumbo, Ariel, Mickey and Minnie!

The Dumbo and Ariel models are Vazee Pace models, which features the neutral cushioning of the New Balance Vazee Pace shoes. There are elements of Dumbo hidden throughout the shoe, including his signature inside the shoe.
The Ariel model uses the mermaids main colors and textures to represent her signature look along with small details found throughout the shoe.
The Mickey and Minnie models are the 860v6s. View a video of the Minnie and Mickey reveal.
