    Official Wine & Dine 2018

    Looks like I missed the initial bib releases for the challenge, will have to wait closer to and hopefully snag a bib from a travel agent when they don't have a room/ticket requirement. Otherwise we may just relax on our vacation with no races haha.

    Marathon Weekend 2019

    It sounds like you're the one to talk to about that. I've got one goal for sure in the next year, and that's shave another 10-15 minutes off my half PR by September (Race against a particular annoying family member who I almost beat last year). But Dopey does sound like a challenge I grow more...

    Marathon Weekend 2019

    This is true. I suppose my biggest fear would be getting swept. I’ve slowly been increasing speed, my PR for the half is 2:54, so it is doable if I am able to increase the distance.

    Marathon Weekend 2019

    Is it bad that I actually am briefly considering Dopey? With the move of weekends next year the full marathon would actually fall on my birthday, and it would be pretty neat to earn 3 medals that day...but I have never run a full in my life.

    The Running Thread - 2018

    I’d probably pick Chicago, but mostly because ailing parents would be able to see me race.(They live there). It would be a first, as I have not completed that distance. Coffee...yes. I’m in healthcare it is a staple of our diet. I wouldn’t say I have a favorite, but I do stock up every...

    We live in phoenix and I prefer the Red-eye to Orlando. We usually leave about 10pm on American and arrive between 5-6 am.

    The Running Thread - 2018

    I’m big on the swift wick maxus for cushion. But I am such a bad overpronator that they work well with my super supportive shoes. Now if I could just get faster...

    Space Coast Marathon & Disney

    I actually am interested in running this one, but finding the time to get to Florida multiple times during the year from the west coast is so expensive...haha

    Official 2018 Star Wars Dark Side Weekend

    The humidity will be an adjustment for me, but I have changed my run times to be midday or late afternoon to get as much of the heat acclimatization as I can. Helps that we are forecast to break 100 this Wednesday.

    Official 2018 Star Wars Dark Side Weekend

    I am intending to sign up for Kessel Run challenge on payday. For me it will almost be a coast to coast challenge anyway as I intend my virtual half to be the Phoenix-Mesa half in February anyway.

    Official 2018 Star Wars Dark Side Weekend

    So if you submit proof of time when you first register, my understanding is that this is okay. I do not believe they will honor it if you try to enter one after initial registration. I could be wrong however.

    My mother was able to bring in her purse. Beyond that I am unsure.

    Marathon Weekend 2018

    Influenza has hit hard across the country. So bad in fact that I will be turning my phone off when we leave tuesday night for disney so I don't get paged to work all week.

    Marathon Weekend 2018

    I'm totally the opposite. This fall I was training in 90s when the sun went down, and got so adjusted that 50s was cold for me last weekend, and I actually had a thin pullover (Which I tied around my waist by midmorning 60s).

    Marathon Weekend 2018

    I have a competition against myself to see how many Mickey Ice Cream Bars I can eat when we go to Disney, as I have yet to see them for sale outside the park. Part of it was started a few years ago when we had around a dozen snacks left over on a dining plan 2 days to go in our trip.

    Breakfast options or bring your own?

    This past April, I noticed they had small tents set up with chocolate chip muffins. They were slightly chilled and honestly felt like exactly what I needed for breakfast, but I have the unfortunate disadvantage to having to take early morning meds on an empty stomach...so I tend to show up to...
