    Never tell me the odds - My Journey from Couch to Light Side 1/2 Marathon 2018!

    So I have finished 2 5Ks so far this summer. I'm working on pacing at a 15 minute mile by July 1st so that I can work on the 10K at a 15 minute mile for BearFest in August. However, this last weekend I realized that a lot of the time it is not about PRs and time. I signed up to do the Girls on...

    Official 2018 Star Wars - Light Side Half Marathon Weekend - Cancelled

    I'm feeling the same and I just now figured out what it is! :idea: I am planning to run this one with St Jude as a Charity Partner to give me that extra umph and motivation to train and do it. However, I cannot register with the charity until after registration opens and I cannot start...

    Animation Academy

    My pleasure! I went on a trip to WDW in Nov 2014 and at WDW you don't know ahead of time and we ended up drawing Tink. :tinker: Mine was pretty good and I happened to meet her later. I mentioned that we drew her picture earlier and she wanted to see it. In true Tink fashion she gushed about how...

    Animation Academy

    Animation Academy is always on my must do list. I love that DL posts a list of characters and times. WDW was always just a luck of the draw. One of my favorite things is to do the drawing and then go meet the character and have them sign on the same paper. It makes for a great interaction and...

    A jillion trips to WDW but first time to DL CA...am I going to be disappointed?

    So I'll be 100% honest - I am a long time WDW fan. I even had an AP when I lived in Florida. At 36 I took my first DL trip last year because my family wanted to mark it off of the bucket list. It was my parents, myself, and my 27 year old brother. I thought that I was going to be so disappointed...

    Never tell me the odds - My Journey from Couch to Light Side 1/2 Marathon 2018!

    I've been fighting a head cold this week so not as much training. Felt better today so I decided to do some knee strengthening and inclines... I climbed the smallest of our mountains just overlooking town. Yikes! It was 452 stairs plus some straightaway boardwalk to the top and the same coming...

    runDisney Virtual Shorts - An *Incredible* Year 3

    I know if you have the Disney Visa card you earn extra points for using it on Disney "stuff." Is runDisney registration one of those?

    runDisney Virtual Shorts - An *Incredible* Year 3

    So you pay an extra $22 for the coolcore towel and the Pluto Medal that you finished all three races? I think the overall finisher medal should be the bonus for registering for and finishing all of the other 3. I mean, I'm still going to do it, but.... :) The thing I can't wait for is to put...

    Never tell me the odds - My Journey from Couch to Light Side 1/2 Marathon 2018!

    Hi @Shea&Van! Thanks for letting me know about your process. I am excited to visit an actual running store hopefully not too far in the future and get set up. What kind of special socks did you get? I'm super interested in those!

    Which Bluetooth earbuds do you wear while running?

    I use these as well and I love them! The buds always seem to hurt my ears after about 20 minutes so they are out for a half. These are comfortable and the bone conduction allows me to hear my music and be aware of my surroundings. I got them for about $120 at Brookstone. As far as battery life...

    S/O..have you ever had a thread go south on you?

    I live in Southeast Alaska, just a short boat ride away from B.C. Canada. Because of that and saying "sorry" so much, I just say I'm part Canadian... LOL

    S/O..have you ever had a thread go south on you?

    This has been a blast to read through! So I have taken the occasional hit to a comment, but not a thread. I got kicked off once and no one would even say for what..... :guilty: Anyway, I usually get flamed because someone asks a question about babies or children and I toss my 2 cents in. They...

    S/O..have you ever had a thread go south on you?

    My dad would ask, "Did you have to go butcher the chicken?" While I would be crawling under the table in embarrassment!
