Thanks! I haven't had fuel issues for the morning halfs and I thought I had prepared by "practicing" during a few night runs at home but I still had problems. Even with that though, I liked running at night through the parks. (The long stretches on Oceola Pwy not so much.) I definitely would do it again!

I finished, but my time was not good. It was more humid than it was last year and I think that's what I struggled with. The garbage smells at Hollywood Studios backstage areas were bad. I wish they'd find a way to change the course so you didn't have to run past that.
Lots of people were vomiting after the course. Not pretty!
Congrats to everyone that did it!

Congrats on your finish! I think it's really hard to get a PR on a Disney race. Congestion and staggering doesn't help. Humidity is everpresent. Good job!!
You're right about the vomiting. I think beer stands in the corral are to blame. Don't see that on other races and therefore don't see the excessive vomiting. I was working in the med tent and we were slammed- majority of folks seen- vommitting.
yuck.

Thank you for the feedback. It sounds like a race I will need to try once my children are a little older!

I totally agree about the trash smells behind

Sorry I'm so late to join the party! I also finished, a bit slower than I expected but speed was not my goal. I thought it was an INCREDIBLE experience and now that my body has recovered, I'm ready for the next! Oddly enough, I didn't notice the garbage smell at all! The worst part for me was the on and off ramps. That sideways slant was brutal on my plantar fascitis... but other than that, it was smooth and fun. We didn't spend a ton of time at the after party, but did get on Soarin' with a 0 minute wait. I was shocked - took a picture of the wait time banner lol. We had a quick snack in the World Showcase but I really wanted to go back and sleep so I could enjoy the rest of the weekend.
