Settled in at Pop. I just need to share that I got placed in the Baloo and Mogli Building - that has got to be a good sign! And even though I am on the opposite side of Baloo, I get to walk passed him all the time and I am on the quiet side of the building away from the pool and have a nice view of the lake - Disney Magic! Hope everyone got in ok or will have safe travels! Races are just a day away!
I drove on to property about 6:30, and the line of traffic was back past the traffic light. I'm in the Platinum line and just being let in with the second wave.
Shoe try on area is in the staging room, taking up one side. Club moved very efficiently, one line for order forms only and another for try on. I was able to grab a form and get right in the staging line for merch.
I am not even there, not running SS, no real interest in the Brooks shoe line up, but I am SO excited for all of you! Have BIG fun!! Love following along from home!
Got Group 35. Actually one of the better groups I’ve gotten for the expo.
The way I look at it probably they’re going to have some good photo ops in the bib pickup areas. By the time my number comes up I’ll have everything else done
Brooks area was super organized and smooth! They were also giving out the patches that come with the SS shoes just outside that area to anyone who purchased.
Actually it split up the crowd nicely. And the merch is a bit lacking imho. Not a single thing with Meg or Pegasus. Very little of the athleisure line. I got this cute tshirt, but they maybe had 20 of them in very limited sizes.
In fact, I didn't see anything outside the main race characters on anything.
Do they have extended sizes for shoes? I need a size 15, been able to order Brooks online but never in stores, I’m group 8 so hopefully they will still be available

Don’t usually wear Brooks but the Adrenalines fit good and will work for walking or short runs so I had to get a pair of runDisney shoes. That was the most organized setup I think I’ve ever seen. I can’t imagine how many pairs are behind the wall that magically restocks!
