I could do that as well but I probably should be going to bed at a decent time before these races too...
Responsibility, what's that?
I should know after Dopey twice I don’t need sleep to live.
I usually try to be in bed by 9. It’s Disney and I know overall I’m going to have a lack of sleep on race weekends.
That's super impressive TBH. I know Dopey is a whole different ball game for me compared to just a 2 race challenge, but I don't get a luxury of going to WDW numerous times a year and I am here for a good time not for a long time. I can sleep when I am dead. Probably 3/4 of the way through the Marathon. Until then, I don't need sleep.
Very true. I was definitely up past 9 the night before the 5K. Otherwise the bigger races I try to get some sleep.
My concern is how the fatigue will hit me during the marathon. For that reason alone, I'm going to stick with what worked for me during all 5 Star Wars race challenges I've finished. As this could be my only chance at the WDW marathon/Dopey, being as rested as reasonable for it will be my primary objective. I will be in the parks having fun every day after the races, but just leave much earlier than my norm for the races especially the marathon.
One thing I've learned to avoid not sleeping the night before a big race is to run a race the day before that big race. Works like a charm for me.
Yes I don’t know how I do it either. I need to move to a warmer state. See you next month!
