Don't worry, we do value, you can slum with us, hahaha!. We've been very happy the last 2 trips with All-Star Sports, not dirty at all & buses have been great! We are hardly in the room anyway. We prefer POP but it's just worked out better savings to do Sports lately. I figure it's money saved for more RunDisney races & merch!All you guys talking about deluxes. I'll probably be at a value this time since it will most likely be a solo trip for me.
Looking forward to running in our first Disney event. DH, DS and I are all registered for the 5k. So glad we found out from our travel agent about the deal where we get to register early with a vacation package booking! Booked so early that we have to go back at end of Feb. to book plane tickets. LOL More time to get psyched for a return to the land of the Mouse! Can anyone tell me A) How do we get from our resort (CBR) to the Sports Complex for Bib pickup? B) What do the shirts look like?
It also has easy access to Trader Sam's

I'm hoping we can afford to stay at AKL but if not we'll go back to All Star Movies. Stayed there for marathon weekend 2018 and it was a breeze! Like others have said more money for merchandise!
Anyone stayed at AKL for any race weekends? Wouldn't mind your opinion if you have!
That's a nice upgrade either way!DH and I spent some time last night trying to decide where we might want to stay. Thinking the time less park time and more time spent relaxing at the resort. We like beach Club a lot but want to try something else next time. I'm thinking Poly but hubby thinking Grand Floridian.
Can you tell me more about booking with a TA early to secure your spot? I can't find it on the RD site.Looking forward to running in our first Disney event.

Poly also has dole whips... Keels loves dole whips (and so does my Mom!) She so pumped about the 5k and 10K. She went to the gym everyday last week to start her training. I'm hoping for some warm weather for poly pool time!
Well it is Sunday and Sunday's are for Disney (and football right now Go Pack Go!). Thanks to @lhermiston and @FFigawi for the nomination for this new job.
Today's Disney Question for everyone:
How many times have you been to Walt Disney World and when was your first trip?
My answer, I have been 9 times. My first trip I was 8 months old (1999) and don't remember anything of course.
That's really funny.Without sounding glib or humble-braggy, I would definitely say it's easily in the thousands - if we're counting days and not "trips" since I lived here for so long.
I started working at Magic Kingdom as a seasonal child performer for parades and stage shows at 12 (1993 - yikes, I'm old), and then worked part-time/full-time (38 hours a week) in Magic Kingdom entertainment from 1996-2001. And I still come back multiple times a year (in some cases for weeks at a time), since I moved to Texas in 2002.
My first trip was 1989 when we moved to Orlando. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea was my "favorite" ride, mostly because it scared the crap out of my younger brother and I liked torturing him.
Go Pack Go for sure!! Ready to watch the game over here - hoping for a good one regardless of the outcome.Well it is Sunday and Sunday's are for Disney (and football right now Go Pack Go!). Thanks to @lhermiston and @FFigawi for the nomination for this new job.
