It's been a while since I've been on the weekly thread but I wanted to wish everyone doing the half or full this weekend good luck, hopefully some of you will actually see this. I am totally feeling marathon weekend withdrawal not being down there this year, especially with the storm we are expecting.

I am going to attempt to snowshoe on Sunday though so I am kind of glad we are getting the snow, but I'd rather be in Disney.

Hope the 5k went well for everyone!

I ran 3 miles in 25 minutes today and I was thinking of you guys!

Just wanted to drop in and say Hi to everyone. We made it down here last night after a three hour delay. We landed around 12:30am, then got our luggage, rental car and made it to POP around 1:45am. We were a little tired, but just took a little nap and now feel refreshed!!

I am about to head down to the food court here at POP to meet up with everyone. I can't wait! We were at the expo this morning and then MK today and it seems much more crowded than last year!

To all those that still have to travel, have a safe trip! And to all those at home, thanks for the well wishes!

I will try to check in later on and maybe even have a few pictures!!

Firedancer - I'm feeling WDW withdrawal, too. I keep telling myself "it's ok, you'll be doing a race next weekend in Phoenix", but it's not working. I miss my WISHERS! WAH!!!!!

Good luck to everybody again. Hard to believe I won't be getting up at 2 AM to get ready for the 1/2 tomorrow.

Got back from the 1/2 a little while ago....it was great seeing everyone before the race!!!! Couldn't stick around for long after the race, as we have reservations for lunch soon. But wanted to drop in and say it was awesome running weather this morning! I finished part 1 of the Goofy in 2:37 (a little faster than I was shooting for, but I feel great now)...we shall see how I feel tomorrow!

Will check back in later or tomorrow!

Congrats to the Half finishers!!!

Good luck to the Goofy runners and Marathon runners tomorrow!!!

Thanks for the update hockeygirl. Can't wait to hear everyone's TR's when they get back.

Congrats Laurie and all the 1/2 finishers!!

Good luck to all the marathoners tomorrow.

I know I'm having WDW withdrawal. I woke up at 2:10 AM. When I looked at the clock and saw what time it was, my first thought was "I should be getting up for the half right about now!"

Hey all, way to go!!!

Marcia and I took our time, finished 2:24:35. Took our time so that we can race tomorrow!

Everyone running Sunday, keep hydrated, and get some rest. See you out on the road.

We are here at the Dolphin. Got a great room on the 12th floor. We can see everything from up here. Expo was crowded but not too crowded. We didn't see any speakers so we were in and out in an hour. Then we went to lunch at ESPN Club and then into Epcot (I needed sunglasses - forgot mine at home!!) Cought a ride on Test Track and then back to the room. Plan on going to see an Off Kilter show at 5:30 and then back to the room to get the rest of everything ready for the morning. Can't believe in less than 11 hours I will be up getting ready for the marathon.

Congrats to all those who did the 1/2 marathon today. I told a few people who I saw with medals in Epcot congrats.
