    What did you do?

    Ended the old year like the new year with a run, in Florida, in the upper 50s with a few drops of rain. Kind of light, under 3 miles, around 2.65 miles. In the past week ran almost 21 miles while relaxing with my girlfriend along the Emerald Coast that is Florida. Next up, in 18 days, The Half...

    Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon

    Yes, a duplicate finishers meal is included in the display case thing. That is, unless there are any extra finishers medals left, then you might not get one included in your keepsake.

    runDisney MarathonFoto purchase deadlines

    Not that I am cheap or anything, was wondering for those of you who have run runDisney races in the past few years where MarathonFoto took your photo, what is the latest time before you purchased any images through MarathonFoto? I am interested in purchasing an image of two or three from the...

    What did you do?

    On the third day of Christmas I ran for the first time on the beach, on the gulf coast, about 2.75 miles to a fishing pier, in about 40 minutes. Breezy, mid-50s. I can get used to this, but alas I'm only in Florida for a week.

    What did you do?

    Been AWOL for a while since the St. Jude Memphis Half and Full Marathon was canceled due to the arctic blast and ice storm in Memphis. Have not run since Dec. 4 and basically shut down and stopped running. Though I have intentions of running the half marathon course, though a little modified...

    What did you do?

    Everyone has good runs and bad runs. It's a combination of things. Good luck in getting your groove back. As for the WDW proof of time for corral placement, I believe all is not lost. I believe you can still show proof of time at the expo and I'm pretty sure runDisney can place you where you...

    What did you do?

    The strangest thing @Mr mom is that I used to live in Anchorage for military. I remember in winter time we had a squadron snow day at one of the chalets on base and we played snowshoe wiffle ball or softball. Since it was around 20-23F, I wore my trusty Cleveland Indians windbreaker, battling...

    What did you do?

    Yeah, 3 tek shirts - 2 short sleeved and one long sleeved. All runDisney too. More comfortable wearing one tech shirt, but playing around in adding sensible layers due to the cold. A few weeks back on Thanksgiving for the 4 mile turkey trot I had a brain fart. Ended up wearing stocking cap...

    What did you do?

    Ran 2.45 miles Wednesday through Downtown Memphis, in low 40s temps. Not too bad. Shorts, 3 tek shirts, stocking cap, gloves. Felt good. About 30 minutes, nothing fancy. Sunny, felt the warmth on my legs when I ran in the sun. Big difference last time I ran - last Wednesday, low 70s, humid...

    I would say B but you did get a little wet.

    What did you do?

    What i didn't do was run the St. Jude Memphis Marathon Half Marathon on Saturday. As just like the Dallas Marathon and Half, the St. Jude Memphis committee decided in the best interest of the safety of the runners they canceled Saturday's events due to the arctic plunge and moderate ice storm...

    What did you do?

    Ran 2.85 miles in little over 30 minutes Wednesday, first day back running in Memphis after my PR of a run in the Space Coast Half Marathon in Cocoa Village, Fla. It was 74F and windy and humid, about 86%. It got up to 76F in Memphis, and as I type this, at 1:30am CT Thursday it's still hovering...

    What did you do?

    Personal record in 2:21.42 at the Space Coast Half Marathon Sunday morning in Cocoa Village, Fla. Ran with 20 other Team Red White and Blue military veterans, most of us running the half marathon. Low 60s to start, kind of humid and I was sweating pretty good by mile 2. Nice breeze along the...

    What did you do?

    Ran 43:40 in Memphis' annual 4-miler turkey trot Thursday morning in chilly-ish 28F, bright sunny, windy conditions. Ran it with 3100 other runners and walkers at the county park, a park that has buffaloes. Was tempted to run in shorts but opted for my Air Force windbreaker and pants and...

    A2grafix's Wine & Dine Half 2013; coast to coast challenge Part 2

    That's what I did with the Wine and Dine trip. Flew in and out and ran and slept all within 24-25 hours. My sister and family are planning a 40th birthday party trip to WDW in September or early October in 2014. I am looking forward to spending a few days down at WDW and though she has not...

    What did you do?

    Keeping it light in between three half marathons in four weeks. Ran just 2.85 miles Friday before work through the concrete jungle that is Downtown Memphis. 58F to start, 53F to finish in just about 30 minutes. Yeah, the cold front is here. Wore my 2012 Tower 10 miler shirt under my Wine and...

    A2grafix's Wine & Dine Half 2013; coast to coast challenge Part 2

    Thank you. Serious dedication. I wish the Wine and Dine was not in November. Because of my television work schedule Novembers, Februarys, and Mays are out of the question for any time off because these are ratings periods. If I get out of this career field then I might run Wine and Dine again. I...

    A2grafix's Wine & Dine Half 2013; coast to coast challenge Part 2

    As of now, end of 2013, I have no interest in running another runDisney race. I will sit back and evaluate and see what I could run in the future. There are other runs out there, some less expensive, and maybe just as enjoyable. I'm not totally swearing off runDisney, but now that I have...
