For you first time folks, this will be a life changing weekend. You will come out of the race with a new level of confidence that you will have from now on.

Wish I were there running as a frog. Maybe next year.

Thanks, Coach! I always remember your words: Relentless pursuit of forward momemtum.

Ugh! Hope you are feeling better soon Joan! I cant wait to hear how your crowning goes! My stomach bug started Thursday at 4 am. Been twice to the dr and at urgent care for four hours last night. Hoping some drugs kick in for me.

Starting to believe I am cursed from doing this run! Stress fractures stopped me last year and hip surgery 7 weeks ago prevent me from running--so I'm determined to walk. Starting in the front, I should be able to comfortably walk the entire PHM (with my orthos blessing)...and stop for a few select photo ops! Longest walk I was able to get in was 7.5 miles. I pray I can finish! I won't be able to don a blingy medal at the castle for dinner Sunday if I do not cross the finish on my own two feet!
Safe travels to you all...traveling south on 95 through SC, Disney bound now!

Stay strong Princesses !!! Sending pixie dust and get well wishes to everyone who is ill or has any aches and pains.

Ck in on our SWA flight. luggage, carryons, back-packs are all down stairs ready to go.

We've been on East Coast time since Saturday so we are feeling pretty good.

Just CAN"T wait to get there !!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, just thought I'd see if anyone is looking for one pasta party ticket. I have one to sell. I unfortunately had to cancel my trip due to an unexpected surgery

I can email the confirmation & info to be able to pick it up ASAP.
Thanks!

Epson salt baths - LOVE them. I think they help?

Weather - Delta lets you change flights on the same day for a $50 fee. I'm flying from Madison, WI tomorrow night... but I plan to try to get on an earlier flight. $50 for that peace of mind would be great.

I'm so nervous and excited. And omg, I fly tomorrow! Speaking of flying, is deodorant a "liquid"? As in, does it have to be in my quart size baggie?

Thanks Coach Charles. I got a lot of advice from you by reading the Marathon weekend thread.

Walmart or Target sells little packs of liquid tide for washing..less than 3 oz.

Love salt bathes. I don't take them same day as LR but day after.

That's all I can right now.

OH NO!! I hope the crud you're dealing with passes fast. Crossing my fingers it's a 24-hour kind of thing.

If it's a solid, then no it doesn't have to go in your baggie. If it's a roll-on then I believe so because of the liquid in the bottle.

Travel Safe!

This is what I was assuming, but figured I'd check. My baggie was getting full.

happybaker · 02-20-2013, 11:10 AM

My friend asked me the same question yesterday about her deoderant. My baggie is pretty full too and I still need to find a way to jam a Gu in there.

AW, thanks for the offer...but I think I'll be ok bringing them with me. They just look a little funny. I tried to take away from the "drug mule" look of them by packing them in zip baggies that I found at Target long ago...they have crowns printed on them!!! Appropriate, no?

OH NO!!! Hopefully it'll turn out to be a quick 24 hour bug. Fell better!

Thanks! I'm glad it worked out. Good idea about using pins or snaps. I'm just worried he'll be a bit bouncy. Oh well!

Enjoy your last few hours at work and have a safe flight tomorrow!!

Let me echo the thanks, Coach! I've seen a lot of good advice from you in the marathon weekend thread too. Do you have any last minute advice for us Princesses -- especially us first timers?

Do you have something you can pin him to where the bouncing won't bother you? Are you wearing a fanny pack type bag for instance? If you pinned him to that you probably wouldn't notice if he was moving around.
