I appreciate all of the detailed comments based on your past experiences! To clarify, our issue was not with being carded, but rather with the rude comments that followed. I was also curious on the policy of having government IDs for age verification versus the KTTW card (as I knew our photos...

I just returned from the most wonderful vacation on the 7 night Fantasy cruise. I had an amazing time with my college best friend, both of us cruising for the first time. What we found interesting (and sometimes downright rude) was the amount of cast members who neglected to believe that we were...

Thanks for doing this!!

Huge prayers and hugs sent your way.

Well, I gotta say, I truly don’t know how I made it through today. After yesterday’s half seeing spots, I was relying on a pep talk from @DopeyBadger to get me through the daunting 26.2 miles ahead of me. I knew I had the training behind me, but I had never experienced seeing spots before and it...

I had a pretty decent race. Definitely felt tired around mine 7-8 (I forget honestly) before we got the sports beans. The sports beans definitely helped, but I wasn’t sure if I just didn’t drink enough water or have enough calories the day before, but I was seeing spots right before mile 13 I...

FYI - for those who were looking for some merch, World of Disney at Disney Springs is getting some of the marathon weekend merch tomorrow, although nothing dopey. So if anyone is heading over there tomorrow, just a heads up!

Thanks so much couldn’t do it without your support!

Holy moly! Looks like I’m on target for my weekend goals (place in top 50 for at least one race), 34th overall for women and 4th in my age group! I’m shocked, truly!!

Hi, just wanted to let you know we stopped by the ChEAR squad booth at the expo for my sister and they were selling packages for the half but the full is sold out. Hope that helps!

One down 3 to go!

So the expo was a bust for me. No dopey jackets except L OR XL and no or marathon jackets in anything smaller than M. I held up the medium to my body and it reached my knees (im 5’2) so I just couldn’t justify spending the money when it was going to be a dress on me. Poorly executed and pretty...

So incredibly sorry for you and your family. I wish you nothing but rest and healing during this difficult time. I work in cancer research, specifically with colon and appendiceal cancers, so my heart goes out to you. Thank you for taking a moment to spread some cheer ❤️

Had my first race nightmare. I was running the 5k, not in my running sneakers. I had to stop every 2 minutes to tie my laces because they just couldn't stay tied. I knew I was running slower than anticipated, but somehow as I was nearing the finish line, my mom came ONTO the course to try to...

Does anyone know if I can pick up my mom's "chEAR retreat" bag? I know they are super specific about not being able to pick up other's bibs, but I didn't know if they were as strict for the chEAR retreat things. Thanks!!

I'm getting a massage at the GF on the 3rd. I did some reading on it and as long as you typically don't walk away too sore, you should be fine. For me, the 5k and 10k are super easy runs so I can get out the "kinks" from the massage, if I have them, those two days! Let me know how it goes for ya.

WOW I totally forgot we did this, so much life has happened since then. Here are my goals: 1. Really stick to my training plan (thanks dopeybadger) While I'm not currently on an official dopeybadger plan, I definitely stuck to my training much more this year than last (which included many...

Continuously late to the party, but in case anyone was curious there are definitely non-chocolate options for candy. Photopass captured this lovely photo of me shotgunning smarties as we came down Hollywood Boulevard.

Unfortunately, so am I :eek:

SO late to the party. I blinked and this week flew by. I can't believe we are so close!! FWIW, I can confirm that the presence of characters are always rotating, but Disney will know exactly who is going to be out and where they are going to be out two weeks prior to the race. They don't release...
