Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend

[JillC LI]

Hurricane IRMA and fixing up her damage around the house has really screwed with my marathon training. The house is fine, but with everything that needs to be done around here....it's never ending! Hopefully, I can catch a break and get out Sunday to go for a run. Thanks IRMA!! Way to really screw with the training over here.

Sorry :-(

Sorry :-(

The joys of living in Florida, I suppose. To quote the theme song from "The Facts of Life" :

You take the good
You take the bad
You take them both
And now you have
The facts of life.

I will be very jealous of those of you who earn the Dopey medal - it is some very nice bling!

 

[RunningKoen]

These medals are amazing. Great use of the 25th theme.

 

[dreamfinder]

Color me impressed. Not to shabby. Looks like the 25th is a hybrid of the 15th and 20th.

I love all but the half...my favorite all time is the 15th anniversary half medal from 2012.

As far as this years half medal, Something about the coloring I just don't care for and I have never cared for that particular Donald pose....

Granted it's still a nice looking medal, just not in the league of the others....especially that Dopey!

My feelings exactly. The coloring of the half feels off, certainly when compared to Dopey or Full

 

[Figment82]

The colors for the half remind me more of McDonald’s than Donald Duck... I’m not really a fan of color or glitter fills, but the overall design isn’t too bad. It feels strange to see Mickey on the half medal though!

 

[dreamfinder]

Yeah, seeing Mickey on everything but the Dopey medal is a bit weird.

Oh! You're welcome!

Note the course modification on runDisney for W&D through Avatar...

...hoping the same for the marathon in January. Looks like the same route in DHS as last year, too.

Would mean no more early morning rides on Everest if they do that. Wonder if the new "thing" would be rides in Pandora.

That would jeopardize my attempt at a PR.
