Do the shuttles to the expo for packet pickup transport between wws and all the disney resorts (especially interested in beach club and saratoga)?
Me, too!! I was so willing to go through the hassle this year to get a pair. Now, no thanks!!Has anyone else seen the new 2015 run disney New Balance shoes on the disney parks blog? I have to say "meh".... I was excited to get a pair, now not so much. Kinda sad...
Hi everyone! I desperately need advice!
This is my first half marathon ever so i am kind of freaking out!
First thing I wanted to know was what time would you get in line for a bus? I am staying at pop!
Second (this may be silly) what time do people go to sleep before the race? I am a night owl (thank you college) so I am always up till at least 2 so I don't even know if ill end up sleeping which I don't think is such a good idea
TIA
Minniegirl19! This is my first half too!! SUPER NERVOUS as well! I'm a night owl too! Twinsies! Even when I have to get for work at 6am...I'm usually up til one etc. I believe the busses start departing at 3:30 am...and it can get crazy with estimated 20,000 people trying to head to a race that starts two hours after that. I've heard stories of people getting to the stop at 3:15 or earlier. So I might attempt to get there at like 3:10...? But I think I will get up that Saturday really early and hope that, plus my whole traveling activity will tire me out enough to try to get to sleep by 7! I really want to be rested for the run!
Last year my friend and I were on the bus from ASMo at 3!! Heard too many horror stories of people not getting to the race on time. We weren't the only ones there that early. We went to bed at 8pm and got up about 2am. Ran the half and then went to DHS and MK until about 9 that night.
Thanks pinkvol7! Good to know! Wow, even earlier! I'm gonna have to get on top of this!!
I can't believe we're six weeks out from the race! It seems so far away still, but I'm sure it will fly by. Right now, I'm just trying to keep up with my 2x per week maintenance runs (usually 2-4 miles) and long run (right now on 9 miles). My training plan only has me going up to 10 miles, and then tapering. What are your thoughts on that? Can't wait!!
