Marathon Weekend 2019

[mrsg00fy]

I'll just tell DH the marathon is such a bargain I can't afford not to run it!

I like how you think / rationalize!

 

[PCFriar80]

The half is more than the full? Is that always?

The full and the half were both $185 for 2018, $197.21 with the fee.

My Agency has them priced as follows:

Dopey - $575
Goofy - $375
Marathon - $178
Half - $188
10K - $125
5K - $85

This is an all-inclusive number, so Active fees are included.

Thank you!!

 

[Keels]

Thank you!!

No prob! Obviously, these aren't exact from RunDisney, but it gives you a ballpark idea with fees!

Any inclination I had to do the 10K plus Goofy is completely out the window now. $125 for a 10K has crossed the #Nope barrier for me.

Yeah, it's nice to see the dent it will make. I just need to decide Marathon or Goofy. It's funny cause I signed up for a local half for $50 no fees either, it was so weird as I'm so used to rundisney prices

Right? The girls and I were looking for a Racecation we could take as a Girl's Trip and they were balking at a half that was $99 ... and I was like "BOOK IT!"

So Sunday's question......can I just say that I am oblivious when I run, so most of the wonderful sights and sounds are totally lost on me! (Which could make one wonder why I have bothered running at Disney!) I just generally enjoy the "people don't get to walk through here" locations--like the toll booths at MK, or any backstage area.

I will say that my favorite volunteer location was backstage behind Splash Mountain. It was (still is) a water stop. It was so cool to be behind the scenes. I stashed my volunteer kit in an out-of-commission ride vehicle.

Good, I'm not the only one! I chose Disney for my first full since I thought the interesting course would get me through the run, but now I need to do another one since my first was a 4 hour blur! I do remember seeing my family in front of Beach Club and then the final stretch through World Showcase, but that is about it.

Just booked a stay at the Poly for marathon weekend, so I'm officially in for 2019. I did Dopey this year but definitely not doing it again this year (don't get me wrong, I LOVED it, but I'm not ready to do it back to back years) so now I just need to decide if I want to do the full or Goofy...

Well I was on that team in 2017. Stupid cancelled half...

And some of us not so cool kids, too. At least strongly leaning that way. Definitely not Dopey, though.

I’m “just” here for my 1st marathon.
“Don’t @ me”
(I don’t even really know what that means...)

I walked in to the stadium and saw all three of the hot dogs and it immediately became my life's goal to get a selfie with him. This is all three of them - for those of you who are familiar with "Major League":

As a Cleveland fan and Hot Dog Truther it pains me so much to see them legitimize ketchup as a hot dog condiment in such fashion every time I'm at a game. I've got nothing against ketchup, but it belongs on a hot dog the same way sardines and Skittles belong on a hot dog.

I put cheese, mayo AND ketchup on my hot dogs ... so ...

Mayo is a new one. I don't think I have ever seen someone do that before.

It's a Tier 1 condiment, for sure.
