2012 Wine and Dine Half Marathon

So my husband and I just signed up for the Wine and Dine Half Marathon. I can't wait. What are some tips you have for a first time half marathoner and Disney race?

Get there early. Train to beat the 16-minute pace, get the medal, enjoy the party. This is not the race to try for a PR. Have fun!

Yeah, the course is great, but not Disney's best if you're looking to PR. It has a fair number of overpasses between AK and WWoS and DHS.

The nighttime component is fun, although I'd suggest trying to catch a nap early in the day, and train some at night as well, as running late at night has a different feel to it.
