    Marathon Weekend 2025

    SAFD: I have used the Higdon Intermediate plans for the last several years. It has worked for me in terms of getting to the finish line in decent shape but I haven't seen any improvement in my pace. I keep saying I will try something different, really work on getting faster, but then I get...

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    Wow 40ish pages in a day! Just got home from work - after 9 MW registrations without a hitch I didn't get in for 2025. My job doesn't allow me to sit in front of a computer screen forever, so my WFH husband had 3 different browsers going to get me registered. By the time he got in everything was...

    I still use mine on my park backpack - also have the 25th anniversary tag for the marathon! And the Dopey tag from 2023...

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    EEEEK this time next week I will either be thrilled to be in for another MW or freaking out and trying to get a charity bib! Is the only opportunity to get the pre-purchase merch at the time of registration? Or can we go back later and add it if we want? I love the artwork but not ready to pull...

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    SAFD: Haunted Mansion! I still marvel at the creativity of the imagineers when I ride it, even after all of these years.

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    SAFD: Rise - I'm a huge SW fan and this is the most immersive ride I've ever done. Guardians is incredible, but I have to take my motion sickness meds and keep my eyes closed for most of the ride so I don't get sick (DON'T look at the spinning moon!) Safari - this was really tough. HM is my...

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    SAFD: Favorite race weekend is the Hilton Head Island 5k/Half/Full. We fell in love with HHI about 15 years ago when we bought DVC and stayed at the Disney resort there, and it is within driving distance for us so we have made many trips there over the years. I have done the half twice...

    Studio

    Even though I almost always listen to the show on Spotify rather than watch on YT, I really appreciate the improved and less awkward banter with you all in the same room. Since I don't watch live EVER (I'm working on Tuesday afternoons!), getting rid of the live broadcast is fine with me - I...

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    SAFD: Epcot- 1) Test Track - the pure adrenaline rush of being shot out of the building and feeling *almost* out of control flying around the track in a convertible still gets me 2) Guardians (with meclizine on board!) - September is my favorite track (I really respect how amazing this ride...

    Marathon Weekend 2024

    So my shirt from the marathon is falling apart, despite only hanging it to dry after washing. My Goofy and half shirts are fine. Anyone else? Wish rD would go back to the Champion shirts - I have had some of those for YEARS and they still look great :sad2:

    Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend (Oct. 31-Nov. 3, 2024)

    YES! The Swedish chef! I had no plans to do the 5K but now I have to. Is the best strategy on sign up day to sign up for the 5k first and then come back for the challenge? It will be two separate registrations, right?

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    SAFD: Like any relationship, my love affair with running is multifaceted and complex. The main reason I run is that I just feel better when I'm running regularly - I sleep better, I'm happier, and I feel more confident and motivated to take on whatever the world throws at me. Running is also...

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    SAFD: 1) Epcot - it has the best food and beverages, as well as the most live entertainment options. There aren't a ton of attractions but the ones they have are solid. WS is a unique experience, and the rotating festivals are wonderful (F&G is my favorite) 2) AK - yes it needs more rides, but...

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    SAFD: Main Street Electrical Parade is pure nostalgia for me. When I hear the music, I am instantly transported back to my childhood where all our DL days ended with grabbing a spot on the curb to wait for the parade. 100% agree - when I was growing up, and even into the early years with my own...
