I cannot wait for Marathon Weekend 2019!

You and me both, brother. Looking forward to meeting you and other runDisney all-stars in a few weeks.

 

[Sleepless Knight]

Glad to hear the 20 miler went well.

Looks like we have the same parks planned for after the 5K, 10K, and Half races.

 

[Bree]

Yay on a great 20 mile run! Enjoy your break from school.

I was looking at your map for your 20 miler on Runkeeper.... How many laps did you have to do???

I lost track. I like to do the laps around my neighborhood because then I can stash water and fuel at or near my house so I don’t have to carry anything.

Oh yeah that is super helpful! I just hate doing laps because seeing the door to my house is just so tempting to bail and go inside.

Marathon Weekend pre-trip report update numero dos!

This update is all about dining!

1/9

Arrival day originally had Homecomin' planned (I really do love this place). However I am now going to California Grill for dinner for the first time and could be more excited about that. I did brunch in November and it was awesome.

1/10

5K brings on my favorite park with Animal Kingdom and a meal at my favorite in park restaurant Tiffins! I am also doing this as part of the Rivers of Light dining package so I will see that later at night. I likely will snack around Animal Kingdom a bit this day as well.

1/11

I may do breakfast with some people at Trails End, not sure on that yet. As for dinner I am waiting on the alright @Keels to make a decision (which lately is difficult for her...). I may try to head over to Disney Springs this day too.

1/12

Dinner at Il Mulino! A great Italian stop before the marathon. I haven't eaten here yet but have heard great things so I am excited to try this as well. I may do some Woody's Lunchbox earlier that day as well.

1/13

Post marathon meal is Ohana! Give me all the meat and salad and bread. I will eat it all! I am at Magic Kingdom that day as well so I am sure I will eat plenty there.

1/14

Via Napoli during drink around the world as we all celebrate our weekends accomplishments! I haven't been here in a while but pizza is always good for the most part.

1/15

Storybook Dining with Snow, Dopey, Grumpy, and the Queen! I am very excited to try out this brand new offering which is getting rave reviews for the most part right now.

That is what I am doing this trip. I will definitely add in snack and quick service meals at various points. Those are very much on the go decisions. I do want to get some specialty items though.

Now under two weeks people!

NO CALIFORNIA GRILL FOR YOU.

NO CALIFORNIA GRILL FOR YOU.

Why do you hate me?

Why do you hate me?

Listen, buddy. You keep this up and I'm gonna have a free seat on my Illuminations cruise on Monday night ...

You are literally killing me...

Maybe @jennamfeo, @Princess KP and I will check you into Pixar Play Zone while we go enjoy a grown-up dinner on Wednesday night ...

I'm not Grumpy once I have my coffee...

Nice meal plans! We are doing California Grill as well this trip and I'm excited to go there again. I read a review recently of the new Artist Point meal and it sounded fantastic.
