I trained w/his Jax running group for my first marathon and 2010/2011 Goofy challenges. Didn't want it to seem I didn't like Galloway. I truly do love his running program just know he wasn't a fan of the Disney challenges. I completely agree with your training perspective. I'm not planning to do anything different to add in the 5 & 10k. I would normally have a 5 mile shake out run the Friday before the Goofy anyways.
Pretty sure you're leaning towards having a Dopey medal around your neck in January.
I'm curious how many Dopey Challengers will party in the parks with all 6 medals. You could hear those wearing the 3 from the Goofy Challenge from miles away in prior years!
I completely agree the cost is absurd. If I was practical, I wouldn't sign up for the Dopey in January. But I'm a crazy runner girl and need my Dopey medal. I'll also have to travel without my family the first few days so the RW challenge where I can meet other runners ahead of time really has its perks.
Also saw someone mention the weather in 2010. It was brutal. Iced over waters stops were so sketchy.
The weather totally sucked in 2010.
I bet you could meet some peeps between here and a few of the FB pages out there without having to spend the xtra $500 on the RW package..
That extra $500 could buy a whole second registration so you could bring a friend!!
