I went to the running store on my lunch break - just to try on a few pairs - and came back with a pair of Nike Lunarglide +4.Anyone here run in them? They seem to control my foot well - no rolling in or out, tons of heel stability, room for my toes - but the sole feels so inflexible. I'm just sitting at my desk in them for now, though. I'll give 'em a little walk on the treadmill when I get home.
Anyway, I thought they were so comfy that I did do a few short runs in them out of curiosity. They didn't feel bad, but at the time didn't feel as good as my Asics, so I never tried to make a switch...it is a comfy shoe though...hope they work out for you. I'm hopeful that I may be able to stick with my Asics Cumulus now...if I'm gonna start running with inserts for the PF, I'm wondering if that will alleviate some of the little changes they made in the new Cumulus that I didn't like...planning to just try on a few pair this weekend too! 
Was there a promo code for registration? I heard there was a 10% or $10 discount
I got a discount with DVC membership - I want to say it was $10.Was there a promo code for registration? I heard there was a 10% or $10 discount
I have a pair of Lunarglides that I bought over a year ago, maybe two...really because I liked the colors and thought they would be comfortable to have on weekends and stuff...I'm sure I've mentioned my shoe addiction before
Good luck! You know I know all about that particular addiction. That's good to hear,, though, about the Lunarglides - I'm enjoying them so much in my office, I'm tempted to keep them no matter what for walking around WDW. Maybe I could make them walk WDW/short run shoes and reserve my Mizuno Inspires for long runs...

for all of you who have been committed to doing this for so long!
Just back from a Disney vacation. It was so hot and humid! My feet are covered in heat rash.I could use some blister advice though. I've never found any kind of shoes in all of my adult life that doesn't cause blisters. I always get blisters on my heel, except really low, the best way to describe it is if there was a seam that connected my heel to the base of my foot, that is where I get blisters. I've tried bodyglide and moleskin. The moleskin doesn't stay in place, and the bodyglide didn't help either. Any suggestions?
I did the ToT with a friend here on dis. I think we ended up with different goals though and I am afraid that she is going to not run the PHM with me (even though we are both signed up)
Do any of you run it alone.. but not alone? Like you go to the corrals together but meet at the end? This is what I suggested that we do. Maybe I should be a better friend and stay with her again?

Definitely run your own race unless it was pre-planned to run together for fun, etc. My BF is way faster than me too...we choose one race per year to run together for fun, at my pace, and stop for pics, not caring about time. All other races, he's happily cheering me on at the finish...you know, cuz he's already been finished for like an hour! Must be nice, right?

It sounds like you have a good system. I just hope that my friend and I can get to a similar system
Ultimately, I think I ruined the ToT for her. She was not prepared to run like I was. I pushed her and in the end, she was not able to stay for the Villians Bash since she was feeling so poorly (which also meant I didn't go). I realize this isn't a race to run in order to get your best time (after all..character stops.. mile markers...etc are bound to slow ones time) I just want to run it, but also don't want to be the mean person either leaving someone behind or dragging them along .
Just thought I would join in. I am amazed at how long this thread has been going already. I wasn't even sure until the expo at the ToT that I would be doing the PHM. (and if airfare doesn't come down I still might not

Another question... I submitted another time to trackshack (or whatever the email is that is listed on the registration) Should I receive some sort of confirmation? My time from my last 10k (which is what I submitted at the time of registrations) is about 2 min/mile slower than my most recent one. I do have one more 10k that I plan to do, so maybe I shouldn't worry about it...other than that one will be in december so for that one I will have to bring proof to have my corral placement changed.
