As long as that rain stays on Wednesday.
Pool weather on Friday, Saturday and Sunday!! Woohoo! The weather is actually trending better. Better than the 7 degrees I ran in today. Safe New Year's weekend everyone and safe travels next week [for those of you who are not already there!]
I just had successful ultrasound treatment on Anterior Tibialis Tendonitis brought on by running my last 10 mile pace run and followed the next day by my last 20 miler in 15 degree temps, with 15 MPH winds, and in 5" of snow. I didn't believe it sounded like a good idea either, but the PT said that to have me ready for the Marathon, they had to get aggressive. three treatments over five days, completely gone. Glad I did it. I told them to get as aggressive as they thought was safe because I wasn't about to shelve 18 weeks of training to succumb to tendonitis.I am so looking forward to Dopey!! I am also so glad to see these temperatures continue to drop. I was getting worried seeing the warmer weather last week, I do so much better in the cold.
As a PT myself, that just made me cringe lol. There is 0 legitimate research showing the effectiveness of ultrasound. Passive modalities like those you mentioned are actually being phased out of most DPT programs due to the lack of effectiveness they produce. More manual therapy or active treatment will produce better results, also able to be provided by a PT. If your PT is doing ultrasound/TENS/e-stim, especially all in one visit, I would run... far haha.
Okay now. Maybe a tad warm? Certainly don't want rain. But not awful?
Oh man that sucks! Take it easy.I'm good with 40s for runs.
Side note: a friend from growing up lives in Tampa now and is rubbing in their weather right now while the rest of us freeze our you-know-what's off. I don't think she'll be that happy come next week.
Post Marathon meal for DH is Ohana around 6:30 (don't remember atm)
I'm currently injured slipped on some ice at work on Christmas Eve and strained my proximal hamstring. I was able to get through about 2.5mi at the Y earlier today before I had to stop. Currently taped up and been rolling it out frequently. Hoping it gets way better by next week. Probably won't try running again until Tuesday-maybe. Doesn't hurt while walking though so here's hoping it's on the mend.
I feel like I have a gazillion things to do and having the kids home this week is not helping!
I am wearing a Belle costume...blue sparkle skirt, blue shirt, white apron, big blue bow, sparkly hat. Not really a full costume, just subtly Belle. My husband has an imprinted shirt to look like the Beast's shirt and just blue shorts.Just wondering what types of costumes? Like any special characters?
That's cool. I knew there were costumes but wasn't really sure what was permitted. This is my first RunDisney event, so I'm going to try to take in as much as possible. Aside from the races themselves, there's a lot of excitement surrounding these events. The anticipation is killing me!I am wearing a Belle costume...blue sparkle skirt, blue shirt, white apron, big blue bow, sparkly hat. Not really a full costume, just subtly Belle.

BTW....this go-around I'm running for Autism Speaks, so I will be on their uniform. Wouldn't have been able to do a costume anyway. But next year will be a different story.I am wearing a Belle costume...blue sparkle skirt, blue shirt, white apron, big blue bow, sparkly hat. Not really a full costume, just subtly Belle.

He is unfortunately retired from Epcot! Last race I remember seeing him was the 2015 marathon.Has Duffy the Bear made an appearance at any of the races lately? Does he still have a meet and greet in Epcot or has he been totally excommunicated from WDW? Do I have to go to Japan to get a picture with him?
Eight Spoon Cafe has it https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/dining/animal-kingdom/eight-spoon-cafe/menus/ It's already on my "must eats" for the trip, just the baked I get. They are kind of small, so a good snack or a couple for more of a meal is what I do.
Side note - I've been downing Apple Cider Vinegar to fight off anything...best stuff! I'll be bringing a bottle down with me too, down the hatch!
According to this there will be a special 25th anniversary photo op at Mile 25.
