I am sure most of you have done the goofy. Am I wrong in thinking I really wouldn't have to change up my training plan too much from that as long as I don't push the 5k and 10 k too hard?

Same here--though skipping attempting this next year as I am still not 100% after an injury in December of last year. I think training for full in January would not be best for my recovery. That gives me plenty of time to gather 4 throw-away garments in case I need them for the 4 races! Can't get the Goofy 2010 weather out of my mind!
So are any of you ladies going to Disney World and doing the Dopey by yourself? My husband and I are already going in November, so if I do the Dopey it might have to be a solo trip I've never gone solo before, haha.
Maybe we should start a Dopey Solo Runners thread so we could all plan a meet up or something??
I second that motion
Please don't remind me about the weather in 2010. That was about the worst case scenario. Makes me wish I had the money for race retreat!
Marathon weekend 2010 was super cold. I think it was like 28 degrees and raining/snowing that year. Disney on ice

It sounds sucky but at the same time...once you get started....I wonder about that one because this year it was dreadfully hot. Esp doing the full where it was really hot against that black pavement.
I know when the time comes I will pack a load of toss away clothes in case it does turn into Disney on Ice part two.

I'm going to try to train to have a tempo run and a long run on consecutive days
That's about how my plan looks. I know I can do it, it's just a question of how much I need to back off in the half to get through the full. I'll learn that in training this fall.
Yeah, a combination of that and knowing that you probably need to go directly back to your resort after the half and try not to log even another foot of walking the rest of the day
