Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend

[DznyGrlSD]

I am working at ESPN on Wednesday 8a-230p - not sure where I'll be at - either bib pick-up or race shirt distribution.
Thursday, Friday & Saturday I'll be somewhere in the race arrival/staging/fishish areas. I won't know where I'm at until race morning. I typically post on Twitter where I'm at (same username)

I'll try to keep a watch on this site, but using direct text of instagram is the easiest way to meet up for me
Lot's of free time, from 2 till 10 january

I met DznyGrlSD after the 5k last year. Won't be there this year. See you all in 2024.

It had some relatives in Orlando over the past weekend. The day time temperatures were in the 30s & 40s.
Is it expected to be the same this weekend. That is marathon weather for me.

A lot better than the last two on-site (marathon) races for sure!! I think it was projecting to be 71F high for Sunday a couple days ago, now 73F. I hope the upward trend doesn’t continue up any higher than that. Ideally, I’d want the marathon and maybe the half to start around 40-45F with a high around 55ish, but I think cold weather benefits me more than most. I’ll just be thankful with anything less than the mid-80’s it peaked at on Sunday for 2020 and 2022!

Six Races: 5K, 10K, Half, Full, Castaway 5K, and ????
Did they add back in a kid's race and just not tell anybody?

Not the most stylish. I really think they are very busy. At the same time you know I would buy them.

Currently on track to run both the 5K, and 10K virtually next weekend if everything goes to plan. 5K on Saturday followed by the 10K on Sunday.

EDIT: Times can be submitted starting Sunday.

EDIT #2: The merch is fine…it is a little too busy but goes with the theme. I think it comes down to if you like the 90’s ascetic. I don’t mind the black jacket everything else is just fine. I’ll be buying lots of merch come Springtime Surprise though, in fact I already preordered a bunch probably will be getting more as well.

Too busy for me, looks like next week just got a little cheaper.

Not huge fan. I like the white sweatshirt tho.

Time submissions are up for virtual runners. Submitted my half, preparing the run the 5K and 10K next weekend.

With this being it’s 30th anniversary, that was kind of the entire purpose
