Linda and I are at GC Concierge from Thurs-Tues so we are game. I have some "other" comitments on Sat evening(early) and around Noon on Sun

Otherwise look forward to meeting anyone the rest of the time we are there.

Tracy - a few of us are staying at Candy Cane Inn. I've never stayed there but apparently quite a few WISHers did a couple of years ago for the inaugural run in 2006. I've heard a lot of good things about it and it seems to be fairly reasonable in price. Trip Advisor ranks it #1 in popularity for the Anaheim area. And, I was able to save a few more $ with my AAA card.

Come join us!

YES! We should get together. Any suggestions? I just haven't had much time to think about it due to my work being a killer lately. Ugh!

We are also game, we get in on Friday or Thursday and leave Sunday. If we can make it we will.

Well, I decided what hotel I will stay at Saturday night.
I have made a reservation at the Candy Cane Inn and got a AAA discount.
Glad I will be with some other WISHERS.

Of course I am up for a WISH MEET. I will be in Thursday late evening. Other than getting over to the expo I have no plans right now. My aunt said she would either take me wherever I need to go or she could loan me a car. Either Friday or Sat she may want to take me around sightseeing a bit. I may think about visiting DL for a day since I have NEVER been. I am leaving Sunday night, my plane departs at 9pmish so I guess after the race I will shower and check out and hang doing something or be with my Aunt until I need to be at the airport.

We are also leaving late that night and will hang at DTD. Till early afternoon, then head to the airport. Red eye to MCO. The DCL for 5 days, great post race recovery plan.

Finally registered and booked everything for the half marathon. I did the DL half last year too. I'm determined to improve this year, the heat really got to me in 2007.

Currently trying to retrain myself by starting the couch to 5k plan. I'm on week 3 and doing well. My biggest challenge is just getting out the door!

Only about 4 more months to go!

 

[sramille]

Only approx. 4 months to go!

Only approx. 4 months to go!

My countdown clock reads 127 days, 13 hours, 6 minutes as of 4/25/08, at 4:54 Pacific Time.

 

[Mooshu]

I guess I should start training soon!

I can't wait to meet everyone! I've been lurking on the boards and it feels like I know most of you already! Especially Mkymshi!

 

[Brooklyn]

Hi Everyone! I posted awhile back but I have not been on lately.

Training for me officially starts in a few days! Ugh! We shall see how I do! I broke a bone in my foot about 3 weeks ago. I am hoping that it heals well enough!

Are you guys organizing and DIS meets or anything? If I missed someone can you please catch me up?

Thanks!!!

 

[goofyinohio]

I just checked the Disneyland half site and it now says they are 70% full. I really need to make a decision soon.

 

[dsnyfan21]

I will start my training soon. Just got back from the Minnie 15K and I have a judged 5K racewalk this Saturday. I'll let you know how its going. Hope someone who' s been around can come up with a WISH meet.

 

[dsnyfan21]

Started my DL 1/2 training today . 3 miles.
Hey everyone, I hope the weather decides to be nice to us.

[sramille]

You could say that I trained for last years weather today....it was probably about 90 degrees, clear and sunny by the time I finally dragged myself out the door. Only ran about 2.5 miles, but I almost didn't go at all so I'm pretty proud of myself!

 

[goofyinohio]

Well I'm now Official. Heading to Disneyland for the first time Ever.

No family just I and a buddy. Staying at Motel 6.

Does anyone know exactly what you get with the Disneyland Half Package? Just room and tickets? We already booked I'm just curious.

 

[WDWFAN9]

Hey Chris

I don't know about the package, but a 2 day discounted hopper is $113. Ouch, I am not used to paying that much per day! The castle medal though is super-cool!

 

[goofyinohio]

I think we paid $130 for a 4 day hopper. Not too bad at $32.50 a day.

If only they would let us use our Annual Passes from the World!

I'm so excited about going to Disneyland for the first time. Oh and the weekend after I get back from Walt Disney World. Which was just planned instead of our Myrtle Beach trip.

Chris,

Where did you get the tickets? Code from Disney?

I will be signing up DW and I this week by mail for 5K & 1/2. Will see if my 8 week crutch to 1/2 training plan goes well
