Official 2012 Wine and Dine ½ Marathon Thread

If anybody is waiting until the last minute to order your discounted park tickets, like me, go ahead and buy them tonight/now. The online ticket store website will close tomorrow, Nov. 8th. I just got ours and read that message. Whew. I thought I read somewhere that I had until midnight race night or something to purchase those tix. The link is in your registration confirmation email and the pass code is WINEDINE.


One more sleep until we leave! Cleaning the house and wrapping up any loose ends tonight. So excited. I don't know if I'll be able to sleep!

Thanks for the reminder! I will have to do my flight check in in the morning.

Ditto - set an alarm for me. Our flight leaves at 655am.

Those are so adorable!!! Great job! I am a lurker living vicariously through y'all. I am doing the C25k and am still on week 1 after 3 weeks. I doubt I will ever get fit enough to do a half. But I enjoy reading all of y'alls progress. Could luck this weekend to everyone!

Thank you! Good luck on your training. Just keep at it and you'll slowly build your stamina and endurance. You're doing better than all the ones who aren't doing anything!

Did my online flight check in about 10 minutes ago at the 24 hour mark exactly. Yeah, I was a bit excited! But I did get boarding group A (Southwest) so it's good...because last year I had forgotten until a few hours later into the 24 window and got boarding group C on a completely full flight. This flight is full also, so I wanted to get as close to the 24 mark as possible. Got it on the dot.

Isn't that the greatest feeling! I'm hoping to do the same tomorrow!

What beautiful colors! Think I could maybe fit one around a thigh .....

They hav so many different colors to choose from. I know about the sizing - they're so tiny! I had to sew strips together for mine but my youngest DDs was a straight cut.

T minus 6.5 hours until Mickey lift off!! How in the world am I supposed to actually concentrate on work today? Oh that's right, I haven't been concentrating on work for the past three weeks because I'm spending all my time here with you guys! YAY!!!!!!!

You mean we are supposed to be working? I thought I got paid to talk to Disney people all day. Hmm. Go figure.

Have a safe flight Pluto and everyone. I took today off work actually because honestly..... I Am still not packed! Fortunately I don't leave until tomorrow. I have a lot of work to do today tho including packing up DS for his weekend at grandmas. He likes to pile everything he can find into a suitcase and then I have to sort things out later. It's cute.

I'm gonna try to make the meet up and picture Saturday so hopefully I'll see you all then! I'll be in regular boring running clothes- probably purple, which I just realized is ironic given my screen name.

Thanks Figs! Thankfully, I only have to point my truck north and drive for three hours, which is about 2.5 hours past my limit when I know I'm heading to the Mouse...can't get there fast enough!!!!!

I think a purple tail would be a great addition!

 

[IMGONNABE40!]

Waiting for 9:15 so I can do my online check-in. Not sure how focused I will be on my work either!

My bad. Enjoy the drive! So jealous. Thankfully I have a short flight. Sad part is I have free drink coupons and I can't use them Friday night before the race! as coachcharles reminded us.

Really hoping my calf/shin sorts itself out by the race. Still a little sore and tight this morning and I haven't run since Tuesday (which I shouldn't have done anyway because it made it worse).

Looks like we're going to have some amazing cool weather this weekend!

Buggers! I spent way too much moolah when I was up there a couple of weeks ago. Must be that instant gratification gene in me...

 

[mking624]

Packing the rest of my essentials today that I couldn't do until last minute (bathroom stuff). My flight takes off at 3:05pm.

 

[ludari]

I'm ready to go. My flight departs this afternoon so I'll put in a few hours at work and I'm out.

Me too. Was just there this past weekend. I feel like an idiot. Oh well. Why didn't I think of the possible discount.

We were in EPCOT on Monday and I'm glad we waited to shop. We are headed there with our $ now. We will leave some things for everyone

 

[Ebeezy]

Welp, my flights leaves tomorrow morning and I haven't packed yet. Don't even know what i'm going to run in.. However, I am excited and ready to go, even though I didn't get much running in as I should have.. Hoping my momemtum will carry me through..

For the people who are a DW, what's the weather like? I was trying to decide if I should run in long sleeves or not.
