Wow, after the event. Okay, that's good to know. I guess I still have a couple of weeks yet!@Ariel484 Ok, not even attempting the quoting thing!! Lol!
It took a while for rD to charge me for the deferral, maybe even after the event?? Not positive, but I think I got a notification from them when they did.
HAHAHA, so true! He has to suffer three-fold, since I got the pixels pullover, tech shirt AND tech tube!I am still laughing at your exchange with Mr A about the shirt!!! Men! Their taste is all in their mouth
I have actually been decently good about avoiding Princess Half info. I was in a Princess Half-dedicated group on Facebook, so I just left that (not a ton of activity there, so whatever). Lately I have been using the "Mark Forums Read" feature at the top of the menu bar - so I just read the threads I want to read and then mark the ones I don't as read. That has been REALLY helpful in avoiding any Princess information.Man, I totally get the train wreck scenario of wanting to keep up with the thread of a race you aren't doing. My big blow up was Princess last year, when the Worst Thing So Far happened and I couldn't go. Yeah, I drunkenly posted about it (and soberly edited the post later because I really don't like my life on the interwebs) but God help me if I didn't torture myself reading everyone's comments afterwards. On the one hand, you get a fellowship with the people in the thread and you wonder how their worries and training plans panned out in the end. And on the other hand there is glorious torture in indulging yourself in what you don't get.
I did wander back in yesterday/today to see what people thought of the merch.
Probably a good idea to edit that post of yours!! That is TOTALLY something I would do!!
The Force was totally with me. I have seen a lot of BB8s get traded for unicorns...BB8 has done a lot of good in the INKnBURN world.I'm glad BB-8 could get your unicorn. Once might even say the Force was with you ...
I am right there with you - except for the marathon, I think it's the best course at WDW. I mean - 3 parks, first of all. And I just LOVED the atmosphere when I ran it in 2013 (obviously it wasn't the same in 2014 since it was monsooning). And it's at the same time as Food & Wine, but yeah, I'm starting to think it's cursed too. I just love that race so much, I wish it would love me back!!And yay for Wine and Dine. In theory, it is the runDisney race I love the most-best course, night race so no 2 am wake up, great after party. In actuality I ran it in the Whine and Drown of 2014 and deferred in 2015 (which seeing how that turned out isn't that bad) but God help me I feel like that race is cursed. My precious Avengers race is the weekend after so it always feels like a sacrifice for my family to have the back to back races. I soooooo want a GOOD Wine and Dine to know that it's all worth it! But yay for getting the approval to get that as your goal.
Ah, I know what you mean!! I got Mr. A to do the Jingle Jingle 5K with me in 2013, but there's no way he ever wants to do a half. I'm trying to gently imply that it would be fun to do the Princess 10K together, but I'm not sure how far I'll get with that.I'm really hoping you all have a good Wine & Dine in 2016 as well. Selfishly because I want to show pictures and recaps to my husband to try to talk him into it for 2017. I already knows he likes the Food & Wine Fest...it's the convincing him to go run the half with me that would be the harder part.
How fun would that be for your and your husband though...could be a great little adults-only getaway weekend. A little running, a little food & wine festival...
Haha! Thanks...yeah, what is with that?! That must be some some of instantaneous pace it captured, because I assure you that I did not hold that pace for more than a second or so!!Fist bump on the fartleks. Getting to 6:40 pace
AHHH isn't that skirt so cute?! I am a wee Irish lass so I ordered that thing in a hot second. I am OBSESSED with the fabric on the waistband, that area that has the sort of Celtic knot-look. If they made that in a tech shirt or a pullover I would FREAK.And I maybe was looking at the Ink n Burn website for their green plaid designs for my Shamrock race coming up...maybe.
Shamrock race sounds fun!! And is it downtown so that you can see the green river??
