I don't disagree with your core sentiments, but here's where I have an issue. RunDisney doesn't "simply line us up and send us away figuring we will work it out on the course". They've put together a nicely structured system to group runners by ability and send them off together. The runners...

I only see a few options for RunDisney to address the issue. First would be to expand the PoT requirements, which really just shifts the issue a little further back in the starting sequence rather than truly addressing it. Second would be to spread the first non-PoT selectors across multiple...

I knew what you meant.

I think it comes down to what you want from your race experience. You, and many others, see RunDisney races as opportunities to PR in "fun" through on-course entertainment, character photo ops, riding rides, etc. There's absolutely nothing wrong with treating these races that way. Don't fall...

Race etiquette has been an issue at every RunDisney race I’ve attended or stalked from afar. It’s important to note, though, that RunDisney does not ask walkers to move to the right. They ask walkers to move to the side of the course. Even that certainly isn’t followed consistently, but walkers...

I've always liked: "Pain is just a French word for bread."

There are definitely some dark spots on the courses, but I've never felt the need for a headlamp at a race.

Good afternoon RunDisney All-Stars! Welcome to this week's edition of Sundays are for Disney (SAFD). Following along with the Springtime Surprise Weekend reports, heat and humidity are starting to ramp up. In my training run yesterday morning, it felt like gills would be of more use than...

Probably this. During Marathon Weekend this year, folks that chose the 8:00-10:00/mile pace option at registration were spread from A to C because so many had selected it.

Ummm... Use it as a snack/candy bowl?

Yep. Coast to Coast has always been calendar year.

You don't find out whether your PoT was accepted until you pick up your bib at the Expo during race weekend. You can get a pretty good idea of whether it was accepted or not by the bib number you'll get when runner tracking/Expo passes go live, but the letter on the bib is the definitive indicator.

The Aeropex were rebranded as the OpenRun, so they're the same thing. They also have the OpenRun Pro with faster charging and longer battery life, but not quite as much waterproofing.

My wife is currently loving this style of cross-body bag. Super cheap on Amazon. She also looked at the Vera Bradley's, but didn't love any of the patterns.

Speaking of shorts, does anyone have a good pair of running shorts with pockets without an inner liner that they can recommend? I wear compression shorts underneath and it's very hard to find running shorts without a liner. I know I can always cut the liner out, but I hate having to do that.

The pre-race meet-ups are generally by a specified light pole in the staging area. The Saturday afternoon meet-up is usually at Hurricane Hannah's at 2p.

We hear you. We support you. We do not believe you.

Do you know how many miles you normally get out of a pair of this model? I tracke mileage on my shoes, but they really tell me when they’re done. I’ll start to get unexplained aches and pains in my feet, ankles or knees when it’s time to switch. The overall mileage seems to be model dependent...

Good morning RunDisney All-Stars! Registration week is in the books now and I hope everyone was able to get registered for the races they wanted. If not, stalk those monitoring sites and may the odds be ever in your favor! Now that we're registered, let's talk training in Sundays Are For...

Fantastic race @Dopey 2020! Congratulations!
