Hey Ed! The Wine and Dine was at least drier than last year (it poured the whole time), however this year we had severe weather in the area and before the start they evacuated us to the baseball stadium and field house at ESPN WWoS, where we sat for about 45 minutes waiting to see what was going to happen. The cells finally broke up enough to where they finally said the race was still on and lined us up to start, but they cut the whole Animal Kingdom segment out so it ended up being right around 7 miles (6.8 something on my watch, 7.1 on others). Enjoyable, but a little weird starting an hour later than anticipated fueling-wise, then changing strategy to more of a 10k approach...my whole corral went out a bit too fast, but by then we were chomping at the bit to get running. All in all it was fun, just slightly odd. The after party was fun since we really didn't get a chance to enjoy it last year with the rain (we huddled in the Mexico pavilion for a while then left since it was just too rainy) - glad to be able to walk around and enjoy it this time!
