My time today was 4:04:25. I was on pace to finish in 3:55:00 which would have been a PR, but around mile 22, I got an incredible stitch that I couldn't work out no matter what I tried as well as sinus drainage that decided to pop up all of the sudden. This really put me behind, but there will be other races that will allow me to get under 4 hours. Hope everyone else ran well!

Finished the Goofy today. Definitely was not pretty. Just eeked in under 7 hours with a time of 6:57. I was pretty disappointed with the time but considering after mile 3, I was wondering if I could even finish or if maybe I should drop out. After the half yesterday, my throat and mouth were really dry. I thought I was just dehydrated. Woke up on Sunday with the beginnings of a chest cold. The humidity and later the heat just killed me. 
After all our training, I was sure we would finish around 6 hours. It was definitely the toughest race for me so far. I don't think there are anymore Goofys in my future! We had a celebratory dinner at Le Cellier, but my appetite wasn't the best. We are just hanging at the resort tonight. One good thing though....I got that Goofy medal!!! And thank you to my wonderful hubbie who kept encouraging me and stuck with me the whole way!

Hard to say. Some places say 100 cal per mile, others say 120 cal per mile. (Estimated) Somewhere in that ballpark is probably a safe bet.
I didn't notice most of the "celebs" they were promoting. I only saw Joey Fatone either day. What happened to all the others?
Lets see, got off the plane on the 4th, tried to do a 10 miler on the TM at the AKL gym, but serious calf pains 3 miles in. Switched to bike and weights for a bit. Then did nothing but trek around the parks til the 11th. May have not been the smartest, but really now, I get my one good vacation, why would I want to spend valuable park time doing something else? Especially when I'm going to spend 6+ hours running in a few days. Fri 11th, did the 5k with my DW, not a bad pace. Wasn't a huge fan of the "assigned corrals". Way to many people to have to zig zag around way to early. It was nice seeing some rarer character though. Daisy dressed for Norway, Goofy in his patriotic getup, Pluto with a beret, and then Donald with his lumberjack outfit. Sat was the half, 1:47 ish. Was aiming for a 1:45, trying to lay off a bit for the full, so with the heat, I'll take it. Sun the full, ended up being way off pace. Had been training for a 3:25, but ended up being 4 and change. But considering when I hit AK I was having problems going in a straight line, I'll take it. Congrats to all the finishers!

Welcome back semi cold weather. 42 degrees and raining.
5.25 miles this morning. Misted during the first 2 miles and rained for the next 2, then poured for the last mile.

Congrats to all who ran this weekend! Enjoying the posts so far. I'm hoping to see more reports on the Marathon thread as well as pics. Kristi, I'm so sorry you got sick on such a big day. Kudos to you for toughing it out, and what a sweet hubby for getting you through it. Let's see the bling everyone!

Still not bad. Considering the heat, crowds and the Goofy, you should be proud.
Hate that you got sick, and that is probably one of my fears that might happen to me one day, but you gutted it out. Way to Go!Finished the Goofy today. Definitely was not pretty. Just eeked in under 7 hours with a time of 6:57. I was pretty disappointed with the time but considering after mile 3, I was wondering if I could even finish or if maybe I should drop out. After the half yesterday, my throat and mouth were really dry. I thought I was just dehydrated. Woke up on Sunday with the beginnings of a chest cold. The humidity and later the heat just killed me.

Sorry to hear you got sick but congrats on sticking it out and finishing and you have some major bling to show off. I don't know how any of you "Goofy" guys and gals did it. It was so hot Sunday and I know it had to be the same Saturday as well.
Sorry I missed the meet up with everyone. I was so nervous I just ended up wanting to be alone and take it all in gradually. It worked out well and by the start of corral G I was good to go.
Full race/trip report will be coming when we get home from vacation. I have tons of pics!!

Today was just 20 mins on the bike. Enough to work on loosening every thing up. Hope to get some running in this weekend, nothing but cross training til then.

20 miles? What was your speed and overall time. What gear do you typically ride in? and last of 20 questions, LOL, do you ride outsid on an actual bike or on a trainer at the gym?

Like Dreamfinder, I rode 10 miles this morning right at 40 minutes on a trainer at the gym. Then weights.
Happy Tuesday.

Hah. Think you misread what I said. It was 20 minutes, not miles. 20 miles would have been prob about 1 1/4 - 1 1/2 hours. Guesstimating, as I normally stop using the bike around 15 miles. Mostly on a stationary bike at the gym.

Ahhh, I did misread that didnt I. I was about to give you props for having that much patients. I get bored at 10 miles/ 40 minutes. I must find a way to entertain myself. Maybe I need to take a book or something.
Yes, Id be right at 60 minutes for 15 miles. I have a 50 mile ride coming up in 2 months. Oy. Luckily, you can actually coast some on a real bike.
