    Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon

    I received word from runDisney stating that it would be possible for me to get to the corrals early and get my bib. Unsure about the shirt, C2C band, exclusive pin, and whatever else. "In the event that you are unable to make it to the race expo, we will have your race bib at the start of...

    What did you do?

    Yes, awaiting a response from runDisney on what do to. I believe the only option, other than making a Mears dash after arriving at the gate to get to the expo at ESPN, is to have someone pick up the race packet ahead of time for me. I have contact someone on the board. Exploring all my options...

    Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon

    Alright, quick question. I made a mistake. In hindsight I thought I could get my coworker to swap days, or work nearly a double and I would do the same, so I could leave Friday, Nov. 8, for Orlando in time to get my ducks in a row and prep for the Wine and Dine Half the next night. Nope. Can't...

    Who had the air conditioner on after a fine, fine fall run? <== This guy. 4.85 miles after morning fog lifted, 70F in Downtown Memphis. About 45 minutes. Just a nice, smooth, lovely run. A touch of fall is starting to settle in on the Mighty Mississippi.

    First off, sweet that this thread has made it to 500 pages, and I am on a handful of them. Glad that I found this section and I'm happy to join in with you on runs, Disney or no Disney. Finally got back on the road after not running for a whole week. Tried to but work and football games and...

    Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon

    Who is up for a meet and greet relax and stretch time before the Wine and Dine? This this is a night race there might be some time for us to get away from the throng of runners. Meet for about an hour? Between 7:30-8:30pm, maybe 15 minutes either way? Not too sure of where the corrals are in...

    What did you do?

    Wanted to run 10 miles around this time in honor of those who ran in the 2013 Tower 10 miler and my own feat in the inaugural race in 2012. So, Saturday was the day. Was going to hit the concrete jungle of Downtown Memphis close to noon but a storm line blew through with thunder and darkness and...

    What did you do?

    Squeezed in a 3.65 mile run before work Wednesday. Not too bad. Low 70s to start, about 77 at finish. Forgot to bring a water bottle and started to pay for it midway though as it got kind of warm.

    Ran 3.55 miles Saturday morning in humid 79F partly sunny skies across concrete jungle that is Downtown Memphis. Nice leisurely run. Mapping out in the next week 2 big 10 mile runs in honor of me running my first runDisney 10 miler in 2012. Then I'll start to taper back a bit as I get ready for...

    Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon

    I'm 4168 for the half marathon. Thanks @Ariel484 ! I "B"elieve I might be in "B" corral as well, based on my time and my "B" corral placement for the Disneyland Half. Or I could be in "C" since runDisney at WDW does the corral start times a little differently. Regardless, time is almost here.

    Disney Bucket List

After it was completed on my "weekend' I visited a middle ages castle in Germany, traveled the autobahn and autoroute in France, and was deciding to visit Paris Disneyland. Opted with my other coworkers to tour Paris for...

    'The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror 10-Miler Weekend'

    Interesting, the 2012 inaugural race was around 80-83F at start and humid as all get out. Many of us called the Tower 10 miler the "humidity fun run." If it does rain next weekend, hopefully you are not running in a downpour.

    What did you do?

    Texted mom saying we were at Animal Kingdom a year ago today, then made it back to Shades for a rest and then off to the run that was Tower 10 miler. Great out of the way meet-up too. She said it was not only a good time, but a great time and the lunch at Flame Tree BBQ was awesome (I had BBQ...

    Early this morning after work just after midnight put in nearly 6 miles in 65 minutes through the concrete jungle that is Downtown Memphis, and along Tom Lee Park and the Mississippi River. Fun running down Beale Street just before 1am and seeing a few patrons still walking around. AutoZone...

    What did you do?

    3.50 miles or so in 35 minutes around the city jungle that is Downtown Memphis. Ran after some rain, a little humid, upper 70s. Girlfriend, who is a walker, said she would entertain the idea of me and her entering a run. I would run the 5K and she would walk it. After I finish, I would find...

    What did you do?

    Little sleep for me this weekend but well worth it. After volunteering for a 5K Saturday in East Memphis, got up at 5am Sunday to be at the county park by 6am to volunteer for a 10k. Water boy Mile 4.5. Chilly, clear Sunday morning, first day of fall, about 54-56F at run time. After the runners...
