Marathon Weekend 2026

[The Expert]

I might be a little less enthused if the Half was going to be my main race.

Yeahhhhh, that's me. I'm doing the 5K, 10K and Half so that would usually be the medal I'd wear around after the races and for DATW. I might just be rocking a race or weekend shirt this year.

I will go full pitchfork mode if they ever plaster corkcicle or State Farm on the medals.

Not rD but I have a few race medals where the corporate sponsor is the most prominent logo/ image on the medal. Don't really like that.

2024 Boston medal was brutal with a huge “Bank of America” front and center. People flipped out.

They turned out better than I thought. I really like the Marathon, 10k and Dopey. Love the cohesiveness!

Ooooh I like these! And DD will like that the 5k medal is purple.

 

[Dopey 2020]

SAFD team car all the way, really prefer driving myself and leaving when I want, listening to my music, my climate control, etc.

Medals - I don’t hate them - I prefer classic especially for the marathon but I’m doing dopey and looking at these as a set, I like that they finally seem to go well together. Usually seems like they got it and then one jumps out as the square peg in the round hole.
I do hope there aren’t any little oddities, it looks like Dopey may be mounted off of the medal.

I really like them. Too bad I’m not participating

SAFD: I typically get to WDW and park my car for the duration, preferring to ride the busses and the skyway. Stayed at Bonnett Creek one year and had someone drop me, and that meant a looooong walk in the traffic backup. All other races I've taken the bus with no problems. Jan 2024, I was on a bus that missed the Epcot exit; we went to the next exit, looped back, and were there in plenty of time. Winding up on I-4?!! Hadn't heard of that failure mode until now. Definitely not fun to think about.

The medals: I really like the marathon and the Dopey. (Bummer that I'm not doing Dopey, but only for the medal). The others all look nice other than the Valentines Day medal. Just no words on that one.
