    The Official Expedition Everest 2013 Thread

    I don't know if this has been asked. Has anyone done EEC as a team but not finish as a team? I'm much slower than my partner and don't want to hold them back (we are a team for other races all the time). I know the instructions say you have to finish together...but are they strict about this?

    Why are the races selling out so quickly?

    I think social media has a lot to do with it as well as running becoming a more every man sport. FB and twitter have increased the number of people who know about it/talk about it/blog about it/etc. When I was training for the 2007 Disneyland half in college, it was a total fluke that I found...

    How long to train for Princess 1/2?

    I think it really depends on the type of surgery she's having but given the OK from her DR., I don't see why she couldn't do a half with 6 months or so while following a training plan.

    Spectators for WDW Full

    I do sign up for the disney runner tracking but I actually follow my runners on the find my friends app for the iphone, so it's a real time gps locator. I've done many runs (including most recently Princess) where the disney tracker doesnt work fully.

    Spectators for WDW Full

    I did. The miles don't seem to match up to the map vs the course map. Which is why I came here for all the wise rD regulars :-)

    Spectators for WDW Full

    So I'm a planner. I've got two runners doing Dopey and I am the cheering them on for the full. Does anyone have any tips/tricks/etc for seeing my runners the most during the full? I can follow them both on our phones...so tracking them is super easy but I want to know the best way for me...

    Tinker Bell or Princess

    I did both this year. My vote would be Tinker Bell. :-) Both are great races with totally different personalities.

    Vibram Five Fingers/minimilast users

    I switched to minimalist shoes back in December! I learned from my pediatrist (who's a seasoned marathon runner) that because of my spine damage and my natural inclination to walk on my toes switching was actually a great idea. He did warn me that it is a totally different muscle group being...

    T shirt question

    I've been getting the men's shirts at the disneyland half for years. I think the men's XL is a good choice (I was also an 18/20 back when I started w runDisney). The nice thing is they have a shirt swap if you find out its too big or too small If someone else has a size you want you can swap...

    Disneyland Paris 1/2 Marathon Fall 2014

    I got the same survey. In the middle of it, I sent my running family texts and my mom a text saying be prepared for a trip to France in 2014. There is no hesitation from this girl!
