Represent.Checking in to support Team Tim...
So is the subtitle for this version called the Rebuttal?
Ummmmm what is that supposed to mean?
Hi Tim. Glad to see you.Replying from my phone... I'll be back to comment on what I can see are mostly lies.. that didn't take long
It should be. There's no guarantees that it will be. But I'm sure it will be up to my normal standards.Excellent a comparison thread.
This should be good.
Hi Andy! I'll try to make Tim look good in this version.I figured that was the case. I'm glad you're going to be around to help keep him honest.
Oh, yeah. Hi Barry.
just remember there is always two sides to a story then there is the truth
I would put my money on "somewhat."Lets see how these stories match up!
Didn't you just ask me that?I'm in! Ever get that feeling of deja vu?
Welcome!I'm in....
Hi Randall! Will the penguins be joining us?
He just keeps eating! We can't stop him! (Not that we've ever tried or anything...)Glad you started the report! I can't believe how big Ryder is compared to the pictures in your other TR!
Looking forward to the rest!
Excellent. When can we expect yours?Yep, I'm along for this one too.
I wanted to give Tim a head start. So I could come back later and correct all the stuff he got wrong.'bout time...
Sign me up.
You did a heck of a job, CJ. I'll see if I can get you a promotion for next year!She is the CEO and owner of Team Barry. Was ever since you said I do. I am just glad I wasn't fired as GM leading up to the race.
Of course there will. Even if you did two time me and post the same thing on Tim's thread.hmm, im thinking there will be more truth told over here.
Yes! Hey, didn't Mark just ask me that?I'm in! Ever get that feeling of deja vu?
Didn't I just ask you that?
Didn't you just ask me that?
Now my head is starting to hurt...This is like deja vu all over again.
Thankfully we have Randall to keep us all straight.True story!
Close enough!Page 2 again!
Clearly I didn't win this race...
Hi Paul.Checking in to support Team Tim...
Welcome Amanda! I've been swamped with my DIS time - are you writing a TR about your races? How did you do?Can't wait to hear all about it!
Amanda
hehehehehehe you said butt. heheheheheheSo is the subtitle for this version called the Rebuttal?
well i didnt want to pick sides so i just typed that on both reports,
since i figured you guys would have slightly different versions of who smoked who and how it went down.
Welcome!Okay, since I'm reading along with Tim, now that you've started I figured for balance I should read the story from the other point of view.......
You sound exactly like me around this time last year. But we decided to go for it to try and get healthy, and what do you know - I actually like it! Not only are you working your body while out running, but you're giving your mind time to rest - nothing to think about, nothing to worry about, no distractions. I highly suggest looking into a Couch to 5k. It eases you into running so you don't get hurt or discouraged. Good Luck!Running just for running's sake has never appealed to me, and I haven't done hardly any of it except when it is a part of other sports. I really can't envision myself taking on something like this, but I do have to say that your Couch to 5k Program piqued my interest.............
Excellent. When can we expect yours?

Did you guys get the email with your personalized post race page? I printed out both versions. I like the blue better than the red. I think this will go in my frame with the medal, shirt, and other stuff.
Just make stuff up. It's easier that way.Not sure if I was really planning on doing one.
I did. Agree, the blue one is much better. Not going to fit in the shadow box with my shirt and medal, but it still looks pretty cool.Did you guys get the email with your personalized post race page?

I messaged your link to you.No I didn't get that email.. time to search the junk folder.
Welcome! Lurk away!Ahhh another thread to lurk on. Checking in. I will try to keep up.
So sorry to hear that. Glad you were still able to make it down so you could get away from that at least for a few hours.I'm also behind on my Disboards activity.
I finished the Goofy and had a good experience. Life fell apart right before the race with my mom passing away unexpectedly over Christmas and then I got sick the week leading up to the race. Not fun.
I won't spoil the ending then, but congrats on your races!I walked the half marathon and finished just under 3:04 (14:01 min/mile) and then finished the full just under 5:52 (13:25 min/mile). I was satisfied with my full marathon time. I would have liked 5:30 but with the heat and humidity and a sinus infection, I was pretty happy to finish strong.
I don't know the details of your race results either so I'm eagerly following both you and Tim!
Amanda
That's some calendar you have there in Wisconsin.The Half Marathon was on January 12, 2013. Sure, we could have flown down on Thursday the 10th or even Friday the 9th and made it all work.
Friday right?But with Bambi's birthday being January 9th, what's a few more days out of school for the kids in exchange for Bambi getting Casey's Corn Dog Nuggets and a Dole Whip on her birthday? Exactly. So we booked the flight for the 9th.
It's always long when you have kids. I bet if you left them home there would of been no lines. Not sure what your house would of looked like when you got home though.The security line was pretty long but move quick enough that we made it to the gate before our plane did.
Did he buy the 'grass' cube so the dog could pee in the grass while inside?The flight was pretty uneventful. Ryder slept just about the entire time, except when he was browsing SkyMall for the latest cool stuff.
Bad planning on your part. I wore shorts to the airport in the 20 degree temps.We met Bambi's parents at baggage claim and packed all of our stuff into and on top of their van. Which wasn't the easiest, considering it was 80° and humid and I was still wearing my Wisconsin winter clothes.
Lucky you got a room right away.In no time we were arriving at Old Key West dropping all of our stuff into the room. A quick picture of the kids' balloons (compliments of the front desk) and a towel flower. So pretty!
That kid is diesel!!!!!Evan, showing off his strength by holding up a Christmas Tree. The kid loves his vegetables, and it shows.
We've never eaten at Casey's. We aren't the biggest fan of hotdogs.But it was dinner time, and we had Casey's on our mind. No, it's not exactly gourmet, but it's what we like. So there. Here's Evan's chili dog and my BBQ Slaw dog. It was OK, but the bun sucked. Next time: stick to the corn dog nuggets.
Happy Birthday Bambi!!!!!!After finishing up dinner, we made a bee line over to Aloha Isle for a Birthday Dole Whip. (Please excuse the washed out iPhone picture.)
Nice job grooming him.Which, with those cute little puppy dog eyes Ryder makes, quickly turned into his first Dole Whip.
....and you didn't know this?Right after Tinker Bell was Periwinkle, who is evidently Tinker Bell's sister or something. Madison has seen the movie and I got the "Madison Notes" version, which is basically the entire thing, but in some completely random order with a bunch of commentary mixed it.
Still get to see the backside of water?Evan was less than pleased to have to stand around while Madison mixed and mingled with the fairies, so we let him pick the next attraction. His choice? The Jungle Cruise. Chip off the old block, there. First time we rode it at night. Interesting experience.
You should be ashamed of yourself.Unfortunately, something else started while on the boat ride - fireworks. The park was open until 9 that night, and I assumed Wishes would be at 9. Turns out, they ran MSEP at 7 and 9 and Wishes at 8. Crud. That was Bambi's 3rd birthday wish - Corn Dog Nuggets, Dole Whips and Wishes. Next time, sweetie, I promise.

Score!FreezinRafiki said:To our surprise, the Magic Kingdom was still all decked out in it's holiday finest. I would have assumed that it would all have been down by January 9th, but it was nice to see.
