Me too! I really enjoyed being at POFQ last year. Smaller resort. I don't think I ever saw bus lines that were long. It was nice.
Yes! The smaller resort is exactly why I chose POFQ again. It was between this and CBR and I decided to go with POFQ because I heard that CBR is much much more spread out. Also, you are absolutely right about the bus lines. I was able to roll right outta bed and onto a busMe too! I really enjoyed being at POFQ last year. Smaller resort.

Last two trips we stayed at POR including marathon weekend. I have fallen in love with that resort. This trip I am staying deluxe for the first time but I will definitely be back to POR. I haven't stayed at POFQ for a long time but I may have to stay there again soon too.The thread and independent website on the Port Orleans resorts are great. I want to stay there so badly. I wish it was DVC! Ha. http://www.portorleans.org
Has anyone worn athletic toe socks. I've never even worn regular toe socks but I can see where this could benefit the feet and toes from blisters and possible hot spots.
I know there is a debate on how much taper is really recommended for a half, but is a 14 miler 6 days before the event asking for trouble
Thought it should quit lurking and introduce myself. Registered for the full, my first ever. Done a fair number of local HM, so I feel good about the decision to jump to full, but its still a bit nerve wracking to think about that distance.
DH is doing his first HM at Disney too. Will be our first trip to Disney sans kids since we were therer and got engaged 15 years ago. Staying at POFQ. We rend to stay at POR with kids.
Booked a couple dinners already. Trattoria on Friday, Boathouse Sat to celebrate DH's HM, and Sanaa on Sun for me. Post run on Sun we plan to hit Trader Sams and continue the drinking in Epcot.
We're flying in early Thur for expo and heading to Universal on Fri for all the HP things. I think the only thing left to book is airfarw. Waiting for (hopefully) rates to go down.
Glad to be joining you all on this adventure!
My husband and I are both registered for the half during Marathon weekend and the Rebel Challenge the following weekend. I am looking for some help with the training plan. Currently we intend to follow the published Galloway plan for the Rebel Challenge since it makes accommodations for the back to back runs. My concern is that the plan has us doing a 14 mile run the Sunday (1/3) before marathon weekend.
Would you cut that back a bit taking into consideration that we are doing the half on 1/7? This is not a first half marathon for either one of us and we both have several years of off and on running (stopped only due to knee surgery) under our belts.

Beyond excited. My first stay in a deluxe along with my first half marathon.Hi, guys!
It's been a while, and I just wanted to say that this is the best pool of Disers ever!
Is everybody excited for January?
Looks like we'll all be at POFQ! We're there for now unless we can snag a discount later for a deluxe.
Unrelated question: how do I set up an alert on run keeper to do a 1:1 run walk interval for training... Or is that not possible
