also ended up with another person's shots at one station, so I need to post those to the FB groups in hopes of finding their owner.

Same
I have two other groups' photos in my account at least I have mine!

It was great finally meeting up briefing with you all before the 10k. Nerves got the best of me and wanted to get in the corral early.

In line with my wife and daughter at the left hub grass for pics. It’s about a 45-60 minute wait right now.

Keep forgetting that yoga is at HS instead now. Weird!

I got a little FOMO yesterday when I flew home, but it’s good to be home. I did my laundry yesterday to get that done, and now I’m in recovery mode for a couple weeks.

Just an fyi to anyone going to MCO this afternoon. It appears everyone at the airport is struggling with it simultaneously being their first day on the planet AND their first trip to an airport.

I have sky priority and TSA touchless, and it still took us nearly 40 minutes to get our bags checked, thru security, and to the gate.

I hope it’s just an extra bad case of the Mondays, and things will get better tomorrow.

I didn’t know the Running Mickey logo on the rD lug bag was GitD, but here it is, glowing like mad on Haunted Mansion

Now that I have a little time to focus on my thoughts, here’s a question for the group.

How do you deal with not liking ANY of the photos you’ve gotten? I know a large part is that I’m unhappy with how I look in general.

And there are some funny ones. I have one where I’m clearly side-eying the person next to me, and one of my Main Street photos look like I’d rather be dragged behind a horse than running in magic kingdom. And there’s one where my skirt had slid so far up it looks like I wore as a tube top and shorts combo

I want to be excited to share my achievement. I finished a half marathon! I completed the entire princess weekend (minus yoga). But I feel like every photo just makes it look like I barely survived everything, which really wasn’t the case.

Sometimes it’s like a bad hair day, things just don’t look how you want them to for no real reason. Race photos are a big way of how I remember the races. And almost every race weekend there’s at least one race where I end up looking rough (woke up on wrong side of the bed, hot and humid so I’m a sweaty mess, just couldn’t work the camera that day ). So the more races you do, the more chances you have. I find I like how I look far more in posed character photos, and I’m lucky to have 1 candid shot I like per race. So I make sure to prioritize character photos.

For candids, it’s 75% luck and 25% practice. You get better at spotting the photographers with experience and knowing when to “pose” and what looks good, what doesn’t.

We are our own worst critics though, so try not to be too hard on yourself. A lot of people that have really nice photos spend hours getting ready, and purposefully slow down to walk by the cameras and get a bunch of shots so they can pick the best one. And if you wear an elaborate outfit, you will probably get more photos because the photographers will be drawn to you! And just know for every good photo, there are like 20 bad ones

Here’s a side by side of two pictures taken from the same photopass CM within a second. I lucked out and the CM hit the shutter twice, I hate the first picture but love the second. It’s the same me in both pictures!
