Marathon Weekend 2018

[GollyGadget]

I found a site a few months ago that posts the assignments and it actually is different for a few corrals but only by a minute so I wouldn't stress over it.

@kywyldcat03 - thanks for the tip. I always forget there's a shortcut from the lock screen.

Hope everyone had a great week! Another week closer to Marathon Weekend 2018! How many days you ask? 282 days until it all begins!

Sunday's are for Disney though and today's question is...

What is your favorite Disney snack?

My answer: Another tough one for me. I think I will go with Dole Whip. On a warm day it is the perfect way to cool off. I also love anything Mickey shaped so Mickey ice cream bars, Mickey pretzels, etc.

Yes! I love the pineapple Dole Whip with rum. Then my second favorite is the vanilla whip pineapple float. Ugh. That's it! I should go get one now at the Poly!

Funnel cake. I'm a sucker for a good funnel cake.

Speaking of your Dole Whips, rteetz, is there anywhere outside of F&W and AK where I can get a spiked Dole Whip?

Maybe the Polynesian? I know they have the Pineapple Linai there where they do Dole Whip but I don't remember if they do the spiked ones or not.

No rum...

Maybe I'll just bring a small bottle of spiked rum on my flight, and pour it in, myself

.

Either a Citrus Swirl from Sunshine Tree Terrace or an Ice Cream Macaron from France

Gotta go with the Dole Whip!

Right. The Polynesian...the Pineapple Lanai doesn't have the rum but around the corner at the Trader Sams Grog Grotto bar they do!

As for PARKS, Animal Kingdom does the whips with rum. Tamu Tamu Refreshments in Africa. It's a quick service stand!

Where?

Trader Sams Grog Grotto outside bar right by the pool! Or AK.

A palmier from Les Halles. Or a soft serve waffle cone from anywhere. Or a pretzel from Germany. Or...

But, yeah, getting a palmier from Les Halles is an every time in Epcot thing for me and usually occurs multiple times per trip.

Mmmmmm, snacks. This requires some parsing:

For savory: Baked potato in Liberty Square. A value lunch option, or even just a way to stave off the "Hangry". And not because baked potato is unique, it just beats the usual overpriced options of fried, salty, carbs or fat.

For sweet: Dole whip/float. This one is still sort of unique (although it is spreading). It's fun to get an afternoon Dole Whip before leaving the park, sit on a bench and watch all the little, tired kids melt down!

Runner up would be school bread from Norway. Very tasty, and not something I would be able to find easily elsewhere.

Carrot Cake cookie <3

Thanks. In that case maybe I'll run at suicide pace and see how fast I can go. My PR is around 7:30 pace but that's been a few years.

I have another half first weekend of April in OKC if I blow up. Might be fun to embrace that kind of suck. 50% chance of rain next weekend too so maybe it could be an epic memory!

Well, I went and did it. Ran the Half at pretty much a controlled suicide pace. Maybe that's the real meaning of race pace. Either way. It was pretty much running on the edge of defeat from step one to step last.

Hopefully I'll get a great Corral line up.

NET Time: 1:40:25
7:40/mile

Felt like I totally Burned it Down today!

Congrats @Dave Rolen that is a phenomenal time!!

DH and I like to split the Fisherman's Tasting Box from Kringla bakery in Norway as a snack or light lunch. I also love the lefse because it reminds me of Christmas (my family is Norwegian).

I also like the macaron ice cream sandwich in France.

We don't really snack much in the parks, though.

Cinnamon glazed pecans! Runner-up [since this a running forum] Bass Ale!

I make roasted nuts for a living, sell them at Miller Park (Milwaukee Brewers), Lambeau Field (Green Bay Packers), and the Bradley Center (Milwaukee Bucks). Pecans, Almonds, Cashews or a combo of all three! It's also technically not a glaze, at least the way we make them.

I LOVE popcorn so those buckets of popcorn they sell in the parks....genius!
