Marathon Weekend 2017!


What's everyone planning on doing for clothes for the marathon? Throwaways with shorts/tshirt underneath or long sleeves/pants for the whole thing?
Throwaways over a long-sleeved shirt + capris...I think? I'm bringing options!
Thanks for posting! I'm not a fan of the yellow for the 1/2.....seems like we got one 5 years ago? Nonetheless, a lot of races and a lot of colors. I have a 7:00 AM flight to catch tomorrow!!
We definitely had yellow for the half in 2013. :scratchin


Well, I got a spot in the NB queue but I'm not sure I'll make it in time...it's sort of close to when I land at MCO. I know I have 1 hour to get there, but still...wish they would let us pick times!
 
I got a spot in the NB que also. I dont know if I'll buy or not.. I run stability shoes and they dont have any this year :/ runDisney that is..

I got a spot too. I've got 4 rundisney new balance shoes. I'm unsure about this years shoes.
 
Okay, I'll be offline until after the race, just the half for me. Leaving BDL tomorrow at 7:00 AM and should be at BCVs by noon. Thanks for all the good info and back and forth on this thread! Good luck everyone for whatever race or challenge you're running. If I scream out your user name, please don't run from me, unless it's a PR!

I really want to like this year's shoes since they were going to be my reward for myself, but I think I'll put my money toward getting my bib and a race photo framed.

That's another good idea. My grandma was offering to buy me a pair. Maybe I'll ask for that instead.
 
I swear, if I make it to Disney without catching my Mom's cold it will be a miracle! She is sooo sick! Is it possible to OD on Zicam or vitamin C?? Between that and worrying about Winter Storm Helena ruining my travel day I am stressing out! Oh and I sent my DSD $900 on Pay a Person thru my bank on Thursday and she still hasn't received it. I sent money to the other 3 kids and they all got theirs. It is out of my account but not even pending in hers and it was supposed to be there today. I have talked to my bank at least 4 times and they can't figure it out but say it should be there by the 5th. I could have mailed her a check by now! But they already took it out of my account and can't put it back. It's out there in cyber space somewhere. :(

I can't stress zinc enough when people are starting to feel sick. Straight vitamin C works well in conjunction with zinc. It's actually the mineral which is responsible for creating white blood cells that will boost your immunity as you're getting sick! Best wishes for you!!

The 2013 marathon weekend full marathon race shirts also had the same exact color pattern as 2017,I guess you can expect yellow for the half and blue for the full in 2021 as well.I guess there is a difference from 2013 as that was the last year the shirts had a different material than the current ones and those shirts also had the visible stitching,I wasn't a big fan of those.I'm probably different but I've been hoping for a white race shirt from Run Disney for a while now,I like white shirts,I'll be looking at all the 10K runners with a bit of jealousy.Overall not a huge fan of the shirts this year.

Yay we're here! 900 miles of driving (overnight in Savannah - mmmm, crab bisque), fried chicken and strawberry shortcake at Hoop De Doo Revue, and now Stacey and the Must-Dos (which would be an awesome group concept costume idea for the marathon) on endless loop. Life is good!
