WOW!

I just spent half an hour reading this post.

I want to do this! I was tempted to sign up for this year, but dilly dallied around and missed it.

I will work on the walking Mickey later today!

(My WISH excersise for the day is scrubbing my house top to bottom! Play time is over, must go clean!)

 

[LAWalz23]

This sounds really cool! I always wanted to do something like this and it would be neat to do it with such a great group of folks. Thanks for thinking up the idea and inviting everyone else to participate. I was unable to read all the previous post but if someone did not already mention it is it possible to register as a group and possibly get t-shirts or such for all?

 

[alexandmaddie]

I would love to join you guys! We usually go in Jan. so this works out perfectly!

Thank you so much for organizing this!

LAWalz33- we have formed a committte and we are plnning on getting answers to your questoins. We're thinking that WISHCon 2005 will probably be Friday night- Sunday Night- including walking in the Marathon that Sunday morning. Right now , our plans include seeing if we can get ressies for everyone at a discount rate, soem special gatherings at dinner on those nights and fun little things like t-shirts etc. All of these things are voluntary, but if & when we get them organized, they will need to be registered and paid for by those participating. Right now all this stuff is in the talking stages- as everyone on the committee is in and out on vacation!! When we have more specific details we'll make sure everyone knows them!! We still have 18 months to work out nad get ourselves in shape!

We are so excited about this and are happy that you and CarolA and ALexandMaddie are joining us too!! I think we're at alomst 40 WISHers for this marathon!! If you haven't gone to the new website for WISHWalkers, just click on the link under my name and that'll take you there! I'll add your names to this list, and if you want them added to that list, just add it there by emailing kammy!!

Well, I've got a lot of work to do, but count DH (Barry) & I in on this! We should be living in FL by Jan 05, so we won't have to worry about getting there!
Now I just have to get into better shape - MUCH better shape to be able to do this! Right now I'm WAY TOO SLOW!!!
I think the whole idea of WISH-CON sounds really awesome!
I'm on my way over to sign up at the website.

 

[karebear1]

Nancy- HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 2 more to add! This is so fun!! We're gonna have a great group there! Don't worry about being out of shape- there are only ha hadnful that could do this right now- and I do mean a handfull- you are in good company- we're all starting at the beginning!!

Anyone else?!?!?

 

[karebear1]

bumpity bump bump for Melindaandrob!

 

[AKASnowWhite]

Princess VIJA just brought this thread to my attention.....DH and I are SO in!

While I haven't *officially* signed on as a WISH member, I've read alot of your posts, and you folks are SO inspiring!

I've run a bit - never a 1/2 marathon before though....I'm currently *out of commission*... But as soon as my running-related injury heals (torn calf muscle ) I'm back at it!

 

[karebear1]

OK!!! ANother one!! I'll add you to this post! Please be sure to check our new WISHWalker website- click in the link under my siggy if Vija hasn't already sent you there!!

 

[addicted_to_WDW]

Count me in. I'm a good walker even with a bunch of extra weight, so I should be a great walker after I lose it.

This is a great incentive for me. I'll do anything to get an extra WDW trip in, and the more I walk the better I'll feel (and the faster the weight will come off).

Yay!

 

[karebear1]

I'm adding your name the list! Congrats on taking a really big step! Don't forget to check out the official website and add your name there too!

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

I have always thought the WDW Marathon would be neat to do but I am not a runner, however I do like to walk and I am seriously considering joining you guys. I would love to, but we are going on the Disney Magic cruise the week of Thanksgiving 2004, which is just a short time before WISHCon 2005, and I wouldn't want to take DD out of school again in the same school year. I am starting to think about actually coming by myself, if funds permit (I'll just have to keep using my Disney Visa LOL). Is anyone else gonig alone or is everyone bringing their families? Is WDW usually real crowded around the time of the marathon? A friend from work and I always say someday we are going to WDW together without our families and when I mentioned the marathon to her she was concerned about the crowds. I'll have to keep working on her.

Cheryl- from what I understand, the parks can get crowded on that weekend, but most eveyone leaves by Monday, the day afetre the marathon. It is supposed to be very easy after that. I hoipe you caome. If I don't bringmy family, I will either bring a good friend or come myself. I' sure there are others doing the same thing! Hope you can join us!

I think I am ready to make the committment to go also. I plan on going solo--my first trip alone, for the first part of the week, and then DD and Dh will join me when her winter break starts, just before MLK day. It is perfect timing for me--I need something to committ me to walking, I've thought about a solo trip, and with our trip planning for DVC points, we'll have APs so the tickets will be taken care of--let's do it!!
