Last day and last Sunday of the year! I can’t believe we are almost there after a year of discussing, planning, and training. So for the final Sundays are for Disney question...
Are you ready?
My answer: yes! Bring on marathon weekend! Yes it might be cold but I’m ready to have fun, meet some amazing Disers and earn some bling!
I lost a toenail this morning (that got damaged running a very humid 12 mile run in Orlando in Sept) so now I'm really ready!!!! Looking forward to a few short runs this week and then Disney!!!
Are you ready?
It is a sign!!! The only other time I lost a toenail was when I did the Disney marathon 2 years ago (my only marathon). Despite the humidity I felt great the whole race. Unfortunately I didn't realize until I got back to my hotel that I had enormous blisters on my toes, and suffered with them until I came home and had a podiatrist take care of them. Lesson learned - I'm going to stop by the medic tent after the finish to make sure it didn't happen again!!!My Timehop this morning showed me the picture I took of my foot on NYE last year when my toenail fell off. Given I flew to Orlando today, I took it as a sign too
So my Dad is trying to decide what to do about spectating. He is thinking of going to the Magic Kingdom, but isn’t sure how crowded it will be. His other idea is to try to see me at the Transportation and Ticket Center and then again outside the Polynesian or Grand Floridian. Is this idea a possibility - would they allow him to try to walk over there from the TTC or would they try to stop him?
I’ve heard talk about this and I hope it doesn’t affect me. I’m flying out the night of the 4th and although it’s not from the Northeast, it makes me a bit nervous. You never know what kind of effect a snowstorm somewhere else can cause on travel in general.One other thing about weather.....if you're traveling from the DC, Baltimore, Philly, NYC area, or any of the big NE cities, the meteorologist are watching a potential large snowstorm for January 4th and 5th. Right now, it looks like it will stay far enough off the coast not to impact DC, Baltimore, or Philly, but NYC and further north are likely to hammered with a blizzard. There models are showing some indications that the storm may be closer to the coast. If that outcome happens, travel from DC, Baltimore, Philly and NYC, will likely be impossible for the 4th and the 5th. If you're coming from these areas, and travelling either the 4th or 5th, keep an eye on this. YOu may want to adjust your schedule.
