I'll be there for the full and staying at the POP. This is my first full so my goal is to just finish! It's also my first trip back to WDW since 1993!!

Hi, sorry, it's my first time on here and I didn't know where else to post this.
I'm running in the full marathon in 2009 and was wondering if there was anyone from the BUFFALO, NY (whre I'm from) area running in it as well.
Or, since this will be my first marathon, I was wondering if I could
possibly join a pre-arranged group who will be kinda "running together"
towards the back of the 13,000 -- I will be in the 6-7 hour group I'm sure.
Anyone planning on meeting/hanging out/running together during the
race to make it more fun and encourage eachother? My husband's not running -- he's going to have fun at the parks for the 7 hours then meet me at the finish line, so it's just me.
Thanks...

Hey Parrothead!

I live in Toronto (sorta your area). I will be in the 6-7 hour range walking the marathon as well and would love to have a pacing mate!

Hey guys, check at the weekly thread and ask inthat area. Most people keep up with that post and some could help you out.

Hi there -- sorry it took me so long to respond -- haven't been on the computer lately. I will also be jogging most of it and walking as I need to.
Are you hooking up with a group or just going solo? Are you going to FL with anyone? My husband is going with me, but he's not a runner, so he'll just meet me at the finish line. What are you doing to prepare? I'm running 15-30 miles a week...

I'm kinda new to disboards. Where is this weekly thread you speak of?
Not sure where to find it. Thanx!

1.) Please Take a Number - Wear your race number high in the center of your chest. We use the numbers to identify your photos. Also, remember to wear your number on a layer of clothes that we can see.

2.) Read a Map - Review our course shot locations and be sure to look for our photography teams.

3.) Rub the Curb - When you approach our photography locations, move to one side of the road (don't run right down the middle).

4.) Smile - Smile, yell or wave at our photographers - they love it!

5.) Do a Shot Before You Race - Be sure to get your pre-race commemorative photo by visiting our various corral locations (photographers in the vests) at the start staging areas.

6.) Do a Shot After You Race - After you finish, grab your medal and get your commemorative medal photo by visiting our candid stations. Commemorate your accomplishment!

7.) Celebrate - Don't Watch Your Watch - As you finish, put your hands in the air, or give a high-five to your running mate - DO NOT block your number by looking down at your watch.

8.) Don't Tailgate - At our photo locations and at the finish, don't run right behind someone else. Run in your own space (if you can). That way, you'll get a cleaner shot and really showcase your finish.

9.) Run a 5 minute mile pace.

10.) Have Fun!

Aren't 9 and 10 mutually exclusive?

(And since I have never liked any of the photos can I adjust this for ways NOT to get photographed??? )
