Marathon Weekend 2019

[AFwifelife]

Mickey doesn’t appear to be enjoying his marathon. Poor training maybe? Ate at ohanas the night before?

He was fine until WWOS.

The way goofy spins is weird but I’ll still gladly take it.

I’m guessing Mickey looks like he’s running if you spin the medal quickly???

I love the Marathon and Dopey medals so much.

Thanks for posting them!

It is different, like some fancy dial lock you have to line up just right to open something. Hopefully, break proof, and his head doesn't fall off.

I don't get worked up over medals...I display them along with any awards I've won through the year until we put our christmas decorations up then they go into my attic.

BUT, I''m gonna #WhoDat the heck out of that marathon medal this year!

Mickey's got his game face on. I dig him.

Angry Mickey is the best Mickey!!!

DH and I were trying to find merch last year with angry Mickey on it and it was difficult. Now I get a whole medal! SCORE!!!

My pics. The half is BIG. And the challenge medals get bigger from there.
Sorry these aren't better but a lady was vlogging and hogging them.

My last name is Donald, so I am super excited about that Donald Duck medal for the Half! And my Donald Duck running costume is already en route

 

[roxymama]

And sorry I didn't post sooner...had to resize my pics!!

Thanks for posting pics of the medals @roxymama & Good Luck running, go rock your first marathon!

I appreciate seeing all those closeups. I like them even more now.

The Dopey Challenge medals for 2019 as reflected in how I feel about the various distances and the looks on their respective characters faces on the medals. Please note that this should not be read as looking down on anyone who chooses to cap their races at shorter distances. If anything it means they're smarter than me.

Oswald: Yea! I ran a 5K. That was fun!!

Minnie: A 10K Long enough to ask something more of me, but not so long as to alter my entire day. I've got this.

Donald: 13.1 I really need to give a strong effort in this one. Why did I sign up for a half marathon again? Afterwards I have to strike the delicate balance of staying active while recovering without doing too much to wipe me out or too little to keep the soreness lingering for days.

Mickey: 26.2 Focused determination. This one is really going to test me.

Goofy: 39.3 Because that's a silly thing to do. So why not have a big old smile on my face? And possibly be upside down?

Dopey: 48.6 Happily oblivious to the sheer insanity and craziness of what I just did. And smiling all the way.

It’s been a fun year so far but that one may have to be on display longer than just one year.

Your medal lineup makes me tired!!!!

NICE!!! Which of the 70.3 (World's excluded, obviously) did you like the best? I'm trying to make my plan for 2019 and while I don't think I'll be ready for the Haines City 70.3, I'd like to commit to one sooner rather than later. New Orleans would be the easiest since I have a house there now, but boy that race just seems SO snakebit.

 

[kleph]

seeing these images, the matte ones really look a lot better than the chrome ones.

 

[DopeyBadger]

I can attest those medals are nice this year. That Dopey medal is REALLY big.

Gulf Coast 70.3 is probably my favorite race but Boulder 70.3 is probably my favorite race trip. TOTALLY different courses (Boulder is hilly, almost the entire run is off road, temps are usually similar but Boulder is much drier).

I just usually know alot of people who do Gulf Coast, the conditions are very similar to what we have to train with here in Mandeville, tons of accommodations and it's hard to beat a post race party at/in a huge resort pool. It's pretty close to Haines City (I did both this year) but this far out I think you've got plenty of time to get ready.
