Thanks, missastrocat!

We're going next Friday too, and I'm completely stressed out (as I always am) over the travel details and potential airline snafus.

I wish I could just relax and look forward to it, but I'll...

On the runDisney website go to the Wine and Dine Half Marathon page, the click on Runner Info and scroll down to Corral and Bib Assignment. If you've printed your waiver, your bib number is at the...

I'm assigned to Corral B, but I'll be starting in the E corral with my wife, kids, sister and brother-in-law.

Six days after I started this thread I had emergency abdominal surgery followed by a...

We have a family group doing the race- DS (14), DD (17), DW (she'd kill me), my sister and her DH, and me- but we'll be doing a mix of walking/ running. We'll be going slowly to accommodate me. Just...

Thanks.

BrerGnat, I will be careful and follow my doctor's instructions. I will, however, do everything that he allows! I've always been pretty good about listening to my body too.

My biggest...

I don't post a ton but I'm thought It might be ok to ask for a little pixie dust to be tossed in this direction.

My family of four and my sister's family of three have all been training for the...

Yes! You're on the right path! Keep it up, and good luck.

That's great! When my brother-in-law and I did our first race we were worried about the sweepers too, but a walk/run combination is more than fast enough.

I can't wait for the party, too!

Is anyone training for the Wine and Dine Half Marathon in November?

We're doing a family run- I'll be joining my DW, DD, DS, sister, brother-in-law and nephew for what looks to be a really fun...

IllumiNations is by far my family's favorite nighttime show. We always see it multiple times on every trip.

When we first started to go to WDW my daughter, now 16, was very young and she LOVED...

Having seen the show several times, I have to say that it was fascinating to see it from the extreme edge of the amphitheater. I know it would wreck some of the magic for a first time viewer, but...

My pleasure, although from what I've read here over the years, I think you do know almost everything!

I was just on the phone with a CM who told me these things:

1. Some Boardwalk Villa studios have small daybeds (smaller than the 65" daybeds at BWI or YC/BC).

2. All of the resorts in that...

We're currently booked at the Boardwalk Inn for the Wine and Dine Half Marathon, but we're considering moving our reservation to a studio at the Boardwalk Villas in order to save a few hundred...

We like the Cape May breakfast at the Beach Club. It's a buffet with the characters dressed in beachwear. It's kind of mellow compared with some others, but with all of our kids being older now, it's...

We love the Beach club-for the location and the pool. The Wilderness Lodge is second, for when Miss Mommy, aka She Who Must Be Obeyed, wants to spend a bit less!

I'm not running the Tinkerbell, but I have a family group of six running the Wine and Dine in November.

I've run the half during the WDW January Marathon Weekend twice, and they really put on...

We've been to WDW many times, and two summers ago we took our first Disney Cruise on the Wonder. In terms of comparing it to the resorts, the thing that made it great for us is that the "magic" that...

Another thumbs for Melissa:thumbsup:! For me, planning the trip is almost as fun as the trip itself, and Melissa is always a huge help.

Mariachi Cobre in Mexico. They are terrific players and singers, and it makes me hungry just thinking of them! I had the pleasure of performing with them on an orchestra pops concert (along with...

These are all good responses, but one thing has not been mentioned about POFQ- beignets!!!

Thanks for the advice, Greenlawler. The good news is, we discovered very quickly that endurance running and martial arts training are very different, and we're following a good training schedule. ...

Hey Bev,

My brother in law and I are running the Half Marathon and staying at WL too! Enjoy your chair by the fireplace. We'll probably end up recuperating in one of the hot tubs at the pool on...

My brother in law and I are running the Half to celebrate our 50th birthdays. It will be the first race for both of us. We live in different cities, so we're not training together much, but our...
