We had just gotten off the boat and were sitting on the porch at Crockett's Tavern waiting for our table at Trail's End when a Disney police car, two ambulances, a fire truck, and then two more...

    Would This be ridiculous?

    sometimes, when we stay at Boardwalk, I will run around the lake and down by Swan/Dolphin etc and all the way up to the old bus loop at EPCOT back entrance. It is so pretty! i love to run there! Well, if I have an AP, and it is a dead time, how weird would i look if i just went right on in...

    First Ever Half Marathon race report!

    Let me start by saying that this was probably the single biggest accomplishment of my entire life so far. This for me went beyond publishing my first novel even. This has been such an incredible journey. This is how I did Disney two years ago...... That was January of 2009. THIS is how I do...

    Training question???

    Thanksgiving week, we will be on a cruise for 8 days. I was on this ship last year and there is a track on the top deck. 11 laps makes a mile. Do you vets think it would do better for me to train by running the track or just getting on the treadmill in the gym on the ship? I know it is just...

    As you all know, I am the one OBSESSED with making sure I do not get swept during the half in January. I know a lady who did the race last year and was looking up her times online and noticed something interesting. The results page showed the last finisher coming in with a chip time of...

    Anyone going to Pasta Party at EPCOT?

    Hubby and I are going to get tix for the pasta party the Thursday night before the marathon weekend. Has anyone else seen the ad for this on the runDisney site? Looks like a fun time and a great way to meet some of the other runners. I thought it would be a great place for some of us to all...

    Lactic acid buildup??

    Does anyone know anything about this supplement called Inhibilak? Or do any of you eat or take anything that is supposed to help stop lactic acid production in your muscles? I am very intrigued by all of this and learning!

    Need some encouragement!

    So my half training plan took a major blow during the month of August. I found out I had a stomach ulcer which was making me really sick and so I didn't run for two weeks. Then my company went through a big merger with a European company which had me doing some travelling and then once home...

    So how does buying Playdom affect things?

    Saw this article this morning. I am just wondering if it will impact the parks at all or be totally unrelated in the long run. Interesting- not being a gamer I have never heard of Playdom. Anyone else familiar with this company...

    La Calva De Tequila

    So the hubby and I tried this place out for the first time this past weekend and were VERY impressed. He loves margaritas, but tequila is not my fave and I do not handle the tang of a margarita too well. The tappas interested me, and so we gave it a try. First of all- I had a...

    You were all totally correct about School Bread!

    Okay so after the thread the other day hyping it, I decided to try it for the first time in 20 years of EPCOT. It lived up to the hype. And what a bargain! $1.99 and plenty big enough for hubby and I to share. Can not believe I never tried this before and always go for pastries in...

    Do any other DVC members feel this way?

    I know my family are total Disney freaks. While most of our friends have their condos at the beach and condos on the island near here, or havew their boats, and RV's etc., while we have our "condo" at Disney. Some do not get it and that is fine because I do not get the thrill of the beach...
