Marathon Weekend 2017!

[rteetz]

The 1st! Looks like we've got the Milwaukee airport covered on 12/31, 1/1, and 1/2 now. We really should have coordinated better guys...

Wow! Yeah we should have coordinated better.

I did this on purpose, since I am running "just" the marathon, I wanted our vacation time to be AFTER I run (you know, so I can eat ALL THE FOOD!). We don't come home until the 15th.

Now I am so jealous! I fly in the 6th for the same reason--but we are only staying until the night of the 10th (two days of school is really all the kids should miss).

One of the benefits of being old - my kids are grown and out of school.

Arriving on the 4th, hopefully on time at around 3:00. Gotta get the rental car, hit the expo, eat at Sanaa, and then possibly do a little MK(extra magic hours). Would love to sneak in a 7DMT ride that night since I've not had the chance to ride it yet.

So, when are our earliest runners heading for the world? We don't fly in until the 5th, but I'm already completely distracted about the trip!

We fly in Dec 28th

Jan. 6 for us. We'll get some MK action that afternoon. Hopefully, it won't take too long to get from the airport to Pop.

Where is everyone putting their phones? I'm running with my aunt so I need it in case we split up, but I don't plan on listening to music so I'm not sure if the sleeve for my phone on my arm is the best idea. If anyone has any suggestions I might purchase something that might be easier than that!

I'll be flying in the night of the 3rd, getting to the hotel at approximately 1am. So, in a way I'm glad they moved the general admission for the Expo to noon. I'll have a little extra sleep time. Then it's off to Boma for a breakfast ADR, followed by the Expo.

I always carry mine in a pocket of my SparkleSkirts. I also purchased a few years ago a handheld holder that actually worked really well, but since I usually have a skirt on, the pockets are just easier.

I used this Nathan one and it was really good, but there are other brands out there as well. https://www.amazon.com/Nathan-Sonic...&keywords=handheld+iphone+running+case+nathan

We did our flying yesterday and drive over to WDW next Wednesday.

Get a SPI belt. Plenty of room for a phone, gels, etc.

Amphipod microstretch belts work great, too. I use one for my 6S Plus, so there's some capacity there!
