Wet pavement... kinda dark... maybe "Animal Kingdom concrete"???

Real actual feet running across that wet concrete leans towards in-person races coming back.

If you turn the sound on, you can hear cowbells and other race noises!

what is everyone’s prediction for tomorrow? I’ll guess:

no W&D
Marathon as usual
Princess with the later February dates
New April race but no idea on theme.

agree with this, though I would love to be pleasantly surprised about Wine and Dine!

... I'll guess:

- virtual W&D
- Marathon two weeks later than usual
- (same as you for Princess)
- Flower & garden race in April

me too, I have a hotel reserved for that weekend but I’d already given up hope! Would need to start training …

OMG, I never thought I'd love to hear those cowbells again - but I'm definitely excited.

The biggest shock is logging in to see 5 new pages on this thread, even before the instagram post. Were people tipped off?

I hope Marathon isn't two weeks later! I'm primed for Jan. 6-9! (although I'll take two weeks later over none at all)

 

[PrincessV]

I KNEW it. 100% chance it drops while I'm doing 70mph on the Interstate tomorrow. No clue if I'll have a chance to swing back over here tomorrow, so know that I'll be with you all in spirit, if not in gigabytes lol!

ETA: Oh WAIT - no, that's Thursday I won't be online, not tomorrow! I'll be here with you, after all! Unless they opt to announce at 3pm, when I'll be busy... so they obviously will.

Same!

Nah - we're just overly obsessive and insane

Virtual W&D (no point leaving money on the table)
Marathon in early January
Princess the week after President's week
New April race hopefully with the Flower & Garden theme and an after party like W&D.

I don't think it will be part of tomorrow's announcement but I do hope they make the resort runs more formal and bring them back. I'd like to see them let you run them whenever you'd like using a GPX track and earn something resort specific.

Honestly, the rain puddles? Trolling SO HARD. A lot of us still have PTSD from Splash & Dash, Half-of-a-Half, and the One That Was Canceled (not to be confused with the many that were canceled because of COVID). I think rD has a new social media admin and they are savage lolol!

Same…I’d have to move my existing hotel reservation but I would be ok with it so long as I have a bib!!! Eek

Agree! For whatever reason, the shirt from the One That Was Cancelled remains my favorite. Maybe it’s the yellow.

I just hope they release princess info tomorrow too, one of my worries is they will just slow drip out each run, so tomorrow they only announce Wine and Dine is virtual, then wait for Marathon and then wait even longer for Princess...

just an announcement of a virtual race alone isn't very wonderful. so there is no way that could be the news

True but I have so little trust in them right now... they have been trolling hard
