Marathon still does the loops of death through the Blizzard Beach parking lots, but I see it has dropped from 28 miles back down to 26.2 with a start at the Epcot lots rather than the road! 😉

Here's my conspiracy theory :cautious:: Sometime around 2020, Wide World of Sports decided they would outsource runDisney medal design to the collector pin division and they've become less and less like classic, shiny race medals and more and more like enormous, cartoony character pins ever...

I think we all figured that out when you called her Margret (when we all called her Margie) and misspelled Bysevitz

Nah, still over two weeks out, my guess is they’ll probably will be out by the end of the week.

Noooooooo!!! At least I don’t have to feel too bad about choosing the wrong challenge (or trying to do both) because both are essentially the same and nowhere near as classy as the old ones. Oh well, at least I still get to go run the World and the Land in a couple of weeks! 😁

I liked the course pretty well. I would’ve liked it more if they could’ve incorporated a detour through Animal Kingdom or actually through Blizzard Beach (like they did a few marathons ago); however, for a two park route, I did really enjoy it. Initially, I was a little leery of them...

@Surferboy567 please add 19.3 for my challenge. By my calculations, my new total will be 409. Thanks!

Hate to have missed you! Next time maybe we can put together a little DM thread so those that want to do a meet up can coordinate :) So glad that you were able to put it to use and had a great time! I made it to Myrtle Beach just in time to check in, take another shower, and make it to see...

See y’all in the AM. By the way, I don’t mean to brag, but my Challenge races have now been officially endorsed by Jeff Galloway 😁. He’s such a wonderful guy, always great to see him at the races and expo!

More long sleeve shirts! 😣 I really wish they’d give a short sleeve option or, if that’s too tough logistically, do 2 of the 4 weekends in short sleeves instead of just the spring races. Particularly for Wine and Dine (but even for the Jan and Feb races), it’s seemed that long sleeve weather...

Yep, it seems to me with all the woes trying to make D+ and ESPN stop hemorrhaging money, perhaps those would be better being folded in as components of Hulu (which people seem to generally like as a service)

Was just checking the weather, I was so hopeful that this cold snap would last through the weekend, but it looks like today's (Wednesday) high of 68-69F in Orlando is about what the low is expected to be on Saturday and Sunday for the 10K and Half (81-82F Highs, 67-68F Lows). :banghead: A bit...

Haha, i know how it is! I looked back at my Garmin data and realized I have only run one single 4.2 mile training run (for my 42nd b-day in July) that wasn’t part of an organized race since January! Since Springtime Surprise ended in April, I did do one 5k and beer mile on July 4, then starting...

I got 210XX for the challenge, I submitted a PoT of about 2:10:00, so I think it should get me B for the half (hopefully 😁)

If anybody wants my afterparty ticket (I have to leave town directly after the Half and can't make it), shoot me a DM and I'll be happy to mail it to whoever messages first :)

No complaints here either, I’m staying at the Best Western right about here 😃:

I’m afraid that while I dug in on Fastpass+ and Rise of the Resistance virtual queue angles, I have not done the same with Genie. I have been back a couple of times for races or law conferences, it seemed to me (don’t use this as absolute affirmation), that afternoon paid lightning lanes were...
