Official 2012 Wine and Dine ½ Marathon Thread

Well we're on the DME. Not looking good for DH to make it to packet pickup at the expo before 7. We're the 3rd of 4 stops. . Guess he'll be heading out extra early for the 5k.

On flight now. WiFi is super slow but DIS app seems to be faster than anything else. We arrive @ 10:40. Have to pick up own luggage since it'll be after 10. super to red, haven't slept well in days and still some lingering cold. Worked all day. That's okay though. I figure the later we get to bed today, the later we'll sleep in tomorrow.

Question my family is not buying tickets to the after party. Can they still see me finish the race?

Just got back from the expo...UGH...way too many people for this tired little Disney Dork . But I did see one of you in your bright green WISH tee! Good news too - your passholder discount can be used at the race merchandise booths!

And to those of you I held up at the photo booth again...SORRY!!! Hate when I have camera issues! Finally got it though!!

If anyone is at the Brown Derby tonight around 7pm, be sure to say hi to the short blonde in the orange Miami Hurricanes shirt.

DH has just come down with a cold but is determined to run tomorrow. Wish us luck!!

Til we meet my new friends...

That very well may have been me you saw at the expo! I was there approximately 1:00 to 3:00. I wish I had known you were around! Have a great race!

Possibly so. I was in the upstairs ladies room when I saw two ladies with great southern accents compliment you on your shirt and asked you what WISH was. Assuming that was you of course!

Can someone repost the meet up info??? I'm so nervous I can't remember.

Congrats to all families who have done races already this morning. I'm getting ready to have breakfast and finally head to the expo. Hoping I'll nap a bit later as I just COULDN'T SLEEP! Totally the Disney commercial.

So bad news...looks like the DH running will be a gametime decision. He is SO sick! He's taking a hot bath now that I hope will sweat it out of him. Talk about bad karma.

Good luck to everyone and we'll see you in a few hours!!

Hey Fig, 8:30 meet up/pic at 8:45 on the runner side by the information booth. That was my understanding, but I'm a first timer on Disney races and a half. All new to me.

Going to be beautiful weather tonight! Good luck everybody! I got teary eyed at the kids races. The day we've been training for is finally here! Have fun peeps!

 

[princessallegra]

Not running but wanted to say HAVE A GREAT RACE EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!! What an amazing course to run!!!!!!!

 

[Ebeezy]

Well I'm here. Visit parks some yesterday(didn't do much, no thrill rides.) tried some of the food at the wine and food festival. Can't wait to sample some more tonight. Good luck, everyone!! Bout to take a nap.

Anyone staying at Caribbean Beach? How are the RunDisney buses running (pun not intended) lol. I was told that busses to the half marathon could be caught at any of their bus locations. Has anyone found this to be accurate today getting to the 5k or the Expo? With the buses shutting down tonight I'm very nervous about getting there.

Just got back from the Expo and the buses were running smootly from CBR. I waited about 5 minutes for it to come to my stop (Trinidad South) and didn't wait at all at ESPN to come back to CBR. It stops at every bus stop.

I'm at the All-Star sports and the busses to the expo were fine an hour ago. Very little wait.

 

[slp1650]

Getting excited for tonight... Heck, I'm already wearing the long sleeved race shirt I bought yesterday. It's going to be a fun, but long night!

Good luck everyone!
