    plane help!

    We're flying JetBlue for the first time and they let you pick your seats. They also have a few rows on each plane that have extra legroom for little bit more $. I think it's like $10 more per fare to get the little bit more legroom seats. Only thing is they fly out of O'hare, not Midway.

    Riding with.....Glasses.

    Well I don't ride RnRC or Expedition Everest so can't comment on those, but I do ride ToT, Test Track, Mission Space, Space Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain, Splash Mountain, etc and I never take my glasses off and I have never had an issue with them even remotely seeming like they are going to...

    Longest training run for a half marathon?

    I'm training to do a half marathon in October with the hopes of running the WDW half in January. I have my first ever 10K event in May which is the equivalent of 6.2 miles. I plan on training to be able to run 7-8 miles before that race day. That way I know that I'm able to comfortably run that...

    Dinner Reservation Question...

    Don't worry. Showing up with fewer people than are listed is never a problem. Just inform the CM at the podium that you have fewer people when you check in and they will make a note of it. It will actually make it easier for them because it would mean they can seat you at a 4 top instead of...

    2011 espn 5k

    Do you have a running store in your area? Someplace that maybe specializes in running that can do a proper gait analysis for you? This will help in the determining of the proper shoes for you. I wear New Balance shoes and I went to the actual New Balance store in my area and it was through them...

    If your shins have been bothering you, it sounds like you could be developing shin splints. I would take a look at your shoes. You may not be wearing the right kind of shoes. I wouldn't mess with shin splints. If you're not careful and you push yourself thinking they'll go away and you can run...

    Seeing MVMCP from a resort?

    The beach at the Polynesian has a direct line of sight with Cinderella Castle so you'll be able to see Holiday Wishes from there. We watched Wishes from there last year and had a great view.

    Need Help Booking Hotel...optimal

    I just ran your info on the Disney site. If you arrived one day earlier, ie on Wednesday, there is a preferred room available at All Star Movies. Also, if you alter your days by one day each way on both ends, ie, come in on Wednesday and leave on Monday, standard rooms become available at the...

    Last supper

    When we go for the marathon in 2012, we're going to the Pasta in the park party before the 5K and then we'll either go to Marrakesh or the Wave on Friday night before the 1/2 marathon because I know that I can safely eat at either of those restaurants and the food at either one won't upset my...

    counter service questions

    I've never done this but would be interested to know the answer. We love Pizzafari but haven't eaten there in recent years because we don't like pre-made caesar salads and certainly don't want it with our pizzas. If we could order 2 pizzas without the salads, we would certainly go back there for...

    How do the majority run the Disney half marathons?

    Erin, I did a 5K doing run 5 min/walk 1 minute and finished in just under 37 minutes (chip time was 36.53). I figure times that by 4 and I'll get a 1/2 marathon time of around 2 hours and 20 minutes approximately. I plan to do the 2012 WDW 1/2.

    Leaving tomorrow: Daughter gets strep throat today

    Go with option 2 and just inform TSA that you have prescriptions in your carryon and make sure to carry them in their pharmacy bottles with their pharmacy prescription labels on them and you won't have any issues taking them through security. I travel with medications ALL the time, and not just...

    January 5K theme

    For those of you who have done the Family 5Ks in the past, how bad were the strollers? My mom was thinking of doing this particular event with me next year but she won't be happy to know they allow strollers in the event. We were planning to walk this event so I don't have to worry about over...
