    Official 2014 Dopey Challenge Thread!

    All six, of course! :cool1: There are plenty of us who wore all three after the Goofy Challenge, so why the heck wouldn't we bump it up to all six, at least for the early part of the post-race day? :confused3 I think just wearing Dopey or both Dopey and Goofy on Monday would make sense...

    It's great. :dance3: :banana: And, frankly, there's no need to go to Kona to get the Tonga Toast. Go to Captain Cook's (just downstairs from Kona) and get it there. Cheaper, and should be just as good. And it should count as a counter-service rather than a table service credit, if you're on...

    Wow. Only Italian all week? And I hope Via Napoli has improved since I went there in 2011 -- it was dreadful at that point in time (for everyone in my party of 6). Wed: Landscape of Flavor (lunch) and 'Ohana (dinner) :thumbsup2 Thu: Mama Melrose lunch Fantasmic package (grab a snack close to...

    Racer X Goes Goofy (7/15 Dinoland)

    Don't pretend like you don't like some of the detail pics. :snooty: It's uploading them that you dislike. :rotfl2: :rotfl:

    Racer X Goes Goofy (7/15 Dinoland)

    Great video. :happytv: Love the line with DS singing that he has to go, and running into the restroom. :rotfl2: SO jealous that I wasn't down there with you guys. Looked like a great time. (I know, I had my chance.)

    Oh, that would be a horrible plan, IMO. For anyone who has done the training for a marathon (let alone a Goofy Challenge or more), doing a 5k and 10k should be drops in the bucket. :cool1: Those distances shouldn't be bad at all. Even the 1/2 marathon isn't so bad (given how many times you...

    D'oh! :blush: I can't believe I did that. Yes, of course, you are correct. ::yes:: I was talking about the Goofy Challenge for 2012. Which, clearly, shouldn't be relevant for what they will be accepting for times for Dopey. :rolleyes2

    Must be relatively new, because for the 2012 Dopey Challenge, I submitted a 10k time from November 2011. (And was able to get Corral A for it, even though I surely wasn't quite that fast.)

    Try wearing glasses at the beginning of the races in WDW where it's foggy and quickly the glasses fog over, too. So, not only is it dark out (and, in some spots, pitch black because of a lack of street lighting) but you can't see through the fog on your glasses. Talk about not being able to...

    Racer X Goes Goofy (7/15 Dinoland)

    Sorry it's been a long lull until my update. I was co-chairing a large event this past weekend, and thinking about anything else was not happening. And, well, it wasn't THAT grand a tour. Looking back at my pics, you put a few of them up already. And, as y'all may recognize from the...

    I beg to differ. I did my first Goofy in 2012. I ignored the characters during the half marathon (save for one shot with Chip & Dale) and HANDILY got a PR at 1:49:29. :cool1: (My best training runs were always only single-digit minutes under 2 hours.) For the full marathon, I took almost ALL...

    Firsts, Fourths, and Farewells (4/28 Back to the Future!)

    I'll get her on that yet, too. :thumbsup2 (Certainly my personal favorite, even above Space Mountain.) But I think it'll take a while to convince Stacey to permit it. :goodvibes Don't undersell it, Mike. It was SNOWMAGEDDON that we missed out on, wasn't it?

    Wait on that "go-to" designation until after you finally get to Be Our Guest :cloud9: during your next trip. (How weird is it for ME to be the one giving the Disney recommendation to YOU? :confused3 :cool1:)

    One of you takes her through the line and then exits while she rides. :cool1: Meet her on the other end of the ride. :) She can handle the rides. :thumbsup2

    Oh, boy, was DD nervous, as you can clearly tell. As far as the coasters go in Disney World, this is the scariest of them all, by reputation. :scared1: Something DD's mom and dad will never set foot on. So, what's a young girl to think about it? We got through the line really fast and...

    It's loud enough wearing all three medals after finishing the Goofy Challenge. Good lord, the clanging from ALL of these medals is going to be deafening. (Hmm... if the 5k is rubber instead, maybe that can at least be a minor damper on the volume.) That said, I can't WAIT to actually have all...

    Alas, it was getting late enough where I needed to get underway to meet the rest of the crew for dinner. I had a long journey ahead of me into totally unfamiliar territory. But first, though, I needed to make my way to a bus that was going that way, and did so at the Contemporary. The bus...

    While it was still bright outside, I was finally getting to use my FastPass for the best ride in the dark in the park: Space Mountain. :cool1: Being on the FastPass line and not being in a hurry, though, can be very nice. :thumbsup2 It afforded me the opportunity to actually...

    So, what to do in the park alone, in just a relatively short period of time? Hmm... think Jessie and Woody were living up to that? It was still strange to catch that brief glimpse of them. Well, I had a particular FastPass that was burning a hole in my pocket which I needed to use...
