Any WISHers doing the 2004 1/2 or full marathon?

Just wondering if I have any training buddies--I am doing my first 1/2 there & am psyched because my race packet arrived this past Saturday. Got my bib number and I can't wait!

You know all of us that have taken the challenge for 2005 will be wanting VERY COMPLETE DETAILS on your experience! Also guideance on training and what it takes to recover from the experience. Besides losing the weight, and starting training after the holidays, I'll be doing some serious $aving. I plan on two big rewards for participating in 2005....some SPA time at one of the resorts and a visit to Discovery Cove to swim with the dolphins!

Can't wait to hear about your adventure!

Cool, we had thought about doing the Discovery Cove too, but we just can't afford all the things we want to do one this trip. I am going to schedule a massage for myself, DS is going on the Pirate's Cruise and DH is going to do the ride-along for the Richard Petty Driving Experience.

Dh & DS are also going to be part of the Saturday (day before the marathon) events. DH is doing the 5K & DS is doing the 400 yard dash. I will be the one cheering them on from the sidelines for a change.

The race packet was really neat and informative. I did try to send it to Kamy, but it just got emailed back to me so I'll try to snail mail it to her. Has lots of neat info, a course map, etc.... thought you all would like to have as much info as you can.

Also--I follow the training schedule at www.halhigdon.com and find that is what is working for me. There is also a yahoo group called Team Penguin Disney of non competitive runners who have helped me tremendously with training questions, etc....

Good luck!
