Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend 2022 (Nov. 3-6, 2022)

[Tiggerette]

I'm in for the Saturday meet-up!
Also up for meeting up with folks in Epcot during the mix-in for the party or to watch the fireworks together. I totally struck out on getting Space220 ADRs... probably cause I'm on staying on property this year.

My wife found this really great site for Disney running costumes! https://www.etsy.com/shop/MouseRunn...ame&listing_id=1290659713&section_id=38427898

C'mon man; you have posted this in at least four threads. Pretty much all of us that read one thread read them all.

I'm sorry about that. I was just excited and wanted to share. My bad.

No problem; just wanted to give you a good natured hard time. One of the best parts of these boards is that we support each other and avoid personal attacks.

And your link is to a pretty cool Disney costume site.....

Plans? I have no plans lol! I don't do those anymore and it's GLORIOUS!! I did finally get around to booking a hotel, so I've got a place to sleep. I plan to ride GOTG as many times as possible during the after party, and very much hope for some QT with my Adventurers Club fam, but that's it.

I just figured a family member owns the Etsy shop or something

It's an Etsy store with 134 digitally rendered designs and only 28 sales. It does seem super sketchy to me.

Every Etsy store has to start somewhere! Though I do always think twice before ordering from a shop with few sales.

What are the reviews like for the store? Are they positive or negative. I believe that that is the best way to tell if a store can be trusted.

So basically every runDisney-related store on Etsy?

So, not really a custom crafty shop, but someone selling bootleg imported products?

Hey y'all. Podcaster "Soarin over the Magic" let me know that there's a sewing convention happening the same weekend as F&W. If you're a magically sewcrafty person, this may be a really fun treat for you! The name of the con is "Sew Magical Expo" and it's held at the Gaylord Palms. Cheers!

Okay, I just bought my park tickets for this trip, because I can't buy an annual pass despite this being the second of three trips I'm making in a five-month time frame.

So, if you've been waiting for annual passes to go back up for sale, and they do so in the next week, you're welcome.

I really debated not renewing my pass last spring. So glad I chose to

The question cannot be directly answered until you know what pace a 30/30 interval will be for you, and if you feel you can maintain that pace for the entire race. There are many threads and long answers about avoiding being swept. In simplest terms, you have to stay ahead of the balloon ladies who are the last to start and maintain a 16 minute per mile pace. You should try to start before them as much as you can, with the awareness that thousands of other runners have the same idea. If your 30/30 pace is 16 minutes a mile or faster then you will be fine and might be also able to stop for pictures if that is important to you.

What is your current minutes per mile pace using your 20/40 intervals?

I'm also running the half and share your excitement!

Current pace doing 15/30 is about 15ish I switched to 30/30 this week and did 13-14. Good luck with the half! Very good info

This might have already been posted in this thread-- but does anyone know how many Perfect Two Course Challengers there are?

This post on reddit (link) from July 2021 seems to indicate there were about 100 perfect two course runners in November 2020.

ETA - This reddit references the Wine and Dine HM, not the two course challenge.
