Me!!! My first Disney race!

 

[CarolA]

I am thinking about it... Got to see if I can swing another Disney trip... especially with airfares going UP!!!!!

 

[ghoulishgirl]

Me and mom and maybe my little sister too!

 

[SamSam]

I'm thinking about it. We will be at WDW for the Food and Wine Fest but are definitely doing a Party for the Senses the night before........so, I have to decide if I really want to get up that early after a Party. I'm leaning towards doing it, but just haven't made the commitment yet.

When is the Race for the Taste 10K? And, what is the link to register? Thanks!

I did it two years ago and thought it was a good first Disney race. How fun running through the parks for the first time! Good luck.

 

[AmyBWV99]

Me and DH will be there!

DH and I signed up, and it will be our first race EVER unless we find a 5K to do beforehand. We're starting our training with Couch to 5K and will move up to a 10K program in the summer. He's on Week 3, but I'm in a holding pattern after finishing Week 1 due to an old sprained ankle that suddenly flared up again -- probably from starting the program in running shoes without my prescription orthotics. Yikes. Pixie dust, please, for a full recovery so I can finish the Race!!!

Just signed up my DH yesterday. It will be his very first race and is also signed up for the half marathon in January. He has never done anything like this before but was inspired to start after watching the race this past January.

We are staying at AKV, so we'll have to find our own way to the begining of the race but I'm sure we'll manage! Anyone else not booked through Anthony Travel?

pyrxtc,

Are you doing it also or just your DH?

 

[ksoehrlein]

We're not booked through Anthony Travel either, so we plan to rent a car. But a taxi would be cheaper. We'll decide for sure when the dates get closer.

pyrxtc,

Just my DH. I don't run. he wants me to join him but I am barely back to walking wihtout my knee bothering me. I have another year before I'm allowed to do anything strenuous with it. He has never run before so I am really proud of him for doing this. But I had to post since he wouldn't be caught dead on the Disboards! LOL!!

 

[suzannews]

I am going to have to start a list!!

 

[SamSam]

I'm in. Hey, Party for the Senses on Saturday night, then up early to race...how much better can it get.

 

[Kidoctr]

DH and I did the RFTT 10K last year. It was awesome! Our first Disney race together. We did an Exquisite Evening on Friday night then Party for the Senses on Saturday night before the race on Sunday morning. Yeah, we just called it "carb loading".

Good luck to everyone! We're planning on doing the Tower of Terror 13K this year. Is there a thread for the TOT13K yet??

We'll be at AKV, too! Maybe we can work out a ride situation w/your DH (if he's not too embarrassed about your "Dis" friends!)

I'm doing Couch to 5K in preparation for RftT and am very worried about the pace requirement. (I average just over a 15-minute mile, but right now I still do a lot of walking as part of the program.) I would absolutely LOVE to do Party for the Senses the night before, but I'm worried that my pace will suffer too much the next morning -- especially if I have as much wine as I did last year! I want to Party, but I want even more to finish the race without being swept. Maybe once I'm a more advanced runner and have a better sense of what my race pace will be, I can consider it. What do you think?
