Marathon Weekend 2019

[Keels]

Tell me more about adult Capri Suns...

They are Capri Suns injected with booze - either vodka, rum or tequila. I won’t commit to what will be out there until day of because we have to go with what strikes us

I'll have to try to stop if I am able to identify the Hydration Station just to be the one person to get a regular Capri Sun.

Even though I move at the pace of a snail I tend to have very little recognition of my surroundings as I run, so the odds of me identifying the correct group (or being confident enough in my identification to actually approach) is pretty low.

As a fellow snail I will volunteer to be with you for the 10k and help you identify it and join you with a regular Capri Sun.

Popping in real quick b/c this week has been crazy busy.

A huge Thank You! to @jennamfeo for the red sparkle skirt! You rock!

I hope I can at least witness this epic beer/mimosa/Capri sun stop for the 10K!

I talked to One and Two and they're real excited about the 10K Hydration Station. So far, we're going to have mimosas, ML, Caribé cider, an IPA and another kinda craft beer. Also, regular Capri Suns and adult Capri Suns.

This is making me want to join Marathon Weekend.

Mimosas are making me want to add the 10K...

"what strikes us" is code for "what One and Two leave behind"

Has there been any publication to date on the official course map for the marathon? Will it be identical to last year? I thought they might have to make adjustments with construction, particularly at DHS, but based on last year's map, that might not be necessary.

I don't expect it to change too much. Courses won't be released until the event guide is out which will be December.

Thanks! I last ran this in 2016, and they used to release the map sooner than the event guide in December. Ah, but times change. Or maybe I just wasn't paying much attention. I do recall waaaaaaay back for the 2013, 20th anniversary race, when RunDisney posted a video of Bart Yasso doing an overview of the course with an assist from the Disney characters. That was published well ahead of the marathon - maybe late spring, early summer of 2012.

I assume the course will have to change slightly around the walking path from DHS to EPCOT to accommodate the new bus/gondola areas. It is a mess there now with temporary paths. Maybe it will be cleaned up by January?

New bus area should be open by January I believe.

True Story: for One's birthday trip in September, Two bought two extra bottles of rum on the plane to carry around in her backpack "just in case". They actually made it through bag check at AK one day.

No need for a flask then!

Speaking of flasks, this looks pretty handy

Oooh, that should fit nicely in my wine purse.

I’m super late to the Sunday question. I only have one outfit planned as of yet. Jack sparrow with my rum running shirt for either the half or full. I have Ariel and Minnie I could reuse from last year if I need to. And if it’s real cold again for the 5k, I might bring my jack skellington fleece pajamas, they’re warm and I suppose you can run in most anything for 3 miles.

Costumes for me and @Chris-Mo

10k: Ghost hosts


Had a friend pick up these shirts on a recent trip

Full : Old-school Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl (but in white not pink like this picture). Getting them made by an Etsy shop.

Your 10K shirts are the exact same shirts my two older sons and I wore for the 2016 Princess 10K!

And iglow on etsy is fantastic! We've ordered a ton from that shop over the past several years, and they are SO comfy for running. My favorite is a red minnie polka dot skirt - wore it for two marathons and several half marathons and it's just perfect! She also makes kid-sized running shirts for @mateojr!

@mateojr and I are wearing Lilo and Stitch themed running outfits from iglow for the 10K this year! If I can remember how to post photos, I'll come back to post them!

I see that all races are available for purchase for the 2019 WDW Marathon weekend again. Is it common for run Disney to make extra bibs available throughout the year for previously sold out events?
