Marathon Weekend 2027

Uh huh.

I looked for an eye roll gif but couldn't find one strong enough...

Don’t be a quitter now.

Here’s an example!

Yesterday I told her “see you at marathon weekend!” She was not amused.

I was amused. But….you won’t see me.

Okay, John Cena.

SAFD: if the registration gods are in our favor going for the half first, followed by 10k and hoping desperately not to go to the 5k. If we get shut out. I am still coming but it would be sad for me.

@Disney at Heart hoping to be cheering with you for the full.

Knee injections on Thursday, so hoping it helps.

SAFD: Already have my Goofy bib through a charity and my room reservation through DVC, so everything is set for my 8th MW!

And this time I'm checking out the following Sunday, so no last minute rocking up to the airport direct from DATW.

 

[smileyanna]

SAFD: I signed up for GOOFY through a charity. Looking forward to running with some friends, and hopefully sticking around some meetups longer!

 

[FFigawi]

More than anything, I’m looking forward to the camaraderie, meet ups, and doing significant damage at DATW.

Keep track of those pants this time, ok?

I made a goal to do a 5k a month in 2026 and so far have done that and have my next 2 already scheduled (actually started in December '25) and thinking I'm going to sign up for the Half Marathon for '27

 

[lookingforsunshine]

SAFD: I will be running Dopey #4. Bib secured through A Running Passion already. Assuming all goes well with Springtime and Wine and Dine plans, the marathon will be my 50th runDisney finish line. My first race was the MW half in 2015 (then I had a hiatus until MW 2022, and since then I have been at all of them— a failed Goofy, a marathon DNS due to COVID, and then three successful Dopeys). MW is my favorite so I’m happy.

SAFD: I’m in for Dopey #6 via charity and am very excited for that! But, I’ll also be running the registration gauntlet as my oldest wants to make her return to MW post grad school. Fingers crossed we can get a couple more bibs. Looking forward to seeing all you fun people in just ten short months!

SAFD: I mentioned before but my schedule is going to allow for me to participate in MW without immediately jumping on a plane after finishing the marathon. This is probably the only time as long as I'm working I'll be in this situation so I'm going to try for a one-and-done Dopey. Not sure what my backup plan is for registration but I need one as getting into Dopey is unlikely these days.
I had my DS halfway talked into doing the 5k there, but then he remembered I wake up at 2am for these races and he backed out. The new spread out start schedule could change his mind, but I can't guarantee him a late start. We have no idea how that's going to work. If i could, I'd be registering him for that though.

SAFD: Well… I wanted to see how PHM went before thinking about MW. The short story is that a year ago, I thought my distance running days were over - I never recovered from workouts, was in constant pain in nearly every joint of my body, was only getting maybe 2 hours of sleep a night thanks to interruptions from hot flashes. Over the past year, I started menopausal hormone replacement, got my levels to where most joint pain is gone, I can lift heavy and run long and actually recover and make gains from it, and I’m sleeping better than I have in years! Yesterday, I turned in one of my fastest (still slow, but fast for me) half times ever… and still had plenty in the tank. Other than the asthma kicked up by Pollenpocalypse here in FL, I feel great this morning after the PHM!

So - I think I’m aiming for either Goofy or the marathon + 10K. Goofy is more convenient from a length of stay perspective, so I think that’s my first choice. Registration gods have not been kind to me lately, so high chance I’ll happily accept any gifted links we can conjure!

SAFD: Hoping to be there for Dopey #4! I've gotten lucky three Reg Days in a row and at some point the law of averages will catch up to me but hopefully not until I'm ready to hang up my Dopey shoes (which will also hopefully not be for many years). Sweating this Reg Day already for some reason and have been poking around the various charities but haven't pulled the trigger on any of them and it's getting late in the day on that front, I know. But will most likely roll the dice in two weeks and let it be what it will be.

 

[GollyGadget]

Not that I’m counting…

As always, no promises!

SAFD: Planning on running Dopey again next year, and the 5k for my son. My youngest has mentioned running on and off, but it's always "maybe", so I'm not sure how I feel about signing him up. We're going to be out of the country on registration day, so I'm seriously considering just signing up for Dopey through a charity so I don't have to stress about it.

SAFD: I will be running Dopey #4. Bib secured through A Running Passion already.

How did you secure your bib through them? I'm on their race page and don't see an option to sign up.

SAFD- 2027 will be my 10th overall MW. I'll be registering for the marathon and hopefully 10K as well. Hoping the registration gods will be on my side because I already secured a DVC rental reservation.
