Tinker Bell ½ Marathon Weekend ~ 2014 Check-in!

[longhorns2]

Yeah... if it was ME, I'd do it... but I'm sorta an addict that way. For $2500 and you get a 6 day stay in WDW and the C2C? I'd do it. (love how I spend YOUR money! lol)

Can you shorten the DL trip to make the WDW worth while? Just wondering if there was any savings there. I'm staying shorter in WDW than I normally do to accommodate my DL Tinker trip.

I like the way you think! LOL! I'm arriving on Thursday night for Tink and leaving at the butt crack of dawn on Monday morning. Not sure how I could really shorten it for Tink. PLus airfare has already been bought.

Just kills me to spend that much when that's usually what I spend to take my kids there including dining (I'm a free dining junkie).

BUT.....I really want to do it! Ahhhhhhh.......I hate making these kind of decisions about my bank account.....

Hey, I saved you $15 by having you do it before prices went up. So really, you MADE money.

Glad you are coming! Have you done a WDW race before?

I like the way you think girl!

These 2 races will be my first Disney races. I have a feeling it may be the start of an expensive habit.

17 days until my qualifying 10km. I was hoping to come in under an hour but doesn't look like that is going to happen.

HA! It totally is. But so worth it. You will look at other halves and be slightly saddened that there is no castle or fireworks.

Shoot- anything close to an hour will be awesome! You'll rock it.

Oh my gosh!!! The Disney races are soooo addicting. The WDW 1's wr a bit expensive for me to do every year, so I try every other year, but I can't imagine a labor day w/o being in DL and running. And now that they added Tink, Jan. w/o being there either. Good luck w/ the 10k!

Patty - how's your IT band issue going?

Sitting in the airport right now to go down for Halloweentime at DL! Gotta love free SWA flights and APs. Really going to miss the AP once it expires. Doing a mud run on Sun. that'll be fun, never have done 1 before.

Everyone have a great weekend!!

 

[longhorns2]

Funny you ask. I just jumped on the treadmill and ran 2 miles. While running I realized I hadn't rolled in a couple days. It feels great!

And I rolled when I got off to keep it that way!

I'm debating renewing my AP for WDW. It expires while I'm in wdw for princess. If I knew for sure the princess dates for 2014 I'd renew as long as its covered. But if its pushed out a week, it's debatable on if it would be worth it for me.

My sis and I ran the Disneyland half a few weeks ago and I got an email with my brightoom photos...what I want to know is if I can have both of our picture collections put on the same CD. I kind of think the answer is no but I thought I'd ask.

DW and I did the 5K that same weekend. We wanted to order photos but there was no way on their web site to combine the order and pay one shipping charge. I called Brightroom and they were able to do so over the phone. Try giving them a call with your request.

Also, We recently got an e-mail from Brightroom with a code for 50% off thru October 5th.

Okay ladies -- I am seriously freaked out about running 5.5 miles this weekend. I haven't run that far in probably ever.

I usually run around 7:00 am on Saturday. Tomorrow I have also scheduled a play date for my almost 3 yo DD at 10:30. I'm afraid I won't be able to move.

You can do it! I know you can. Its going to be hard but keep going....you can do it!

 

[longhorns2]

Just keep swimming swimming swimming.... You can do it!

I have to say when I have done my long runs, especially the ones that are "further than I have ever been", I am not typically sore until the next day. I have found that moving around after the long run does minimize the soreness.

 

[kindakrazy2]

How are we all doing with training?

Hope everyone is getting stronger and running longer!

 

[longhorns2]

I weenied out today. Should have done 6 and only did 3. Thinking ill try to correct that tomorrow though!

LOL, me too. The length of the run really got into my head and messed with me. I was supposed to run 5.5 and only did just over 4, and most of it walking.

I'm thinking I might make up the difference tonight.

I was sideligned for the last 2 weeks with asthma problems.

Was able to fast walk for 90 mins at the beach today. Going out tomorrow to try and run/walk 3 miles. Will go slow and just try to get the distance done with no time goal and just finish still breathing.

Hope everyone else is doing better than me.

Keep trying. You're doing great and you'll make it. Remember your intervals and you won't feel it.

Nice job everyone!

I went out for 12kms this morning and it felt pretty good. Wasn't fast did it in 1:15 but it was done and I figure I only need to add 9kms onto that and I have until Jan to do it.

I have 2 weeks until my 10km race for my proof of time. I'd like to come in under an hour but i don't think that will happen.
