It’s trip report time once again! Check out all the posts from this report here. Onward! Let’s see, where was I? Oh, yes, it was the night before the Wine & Dine Half Marathon and I was having a panic attack. For a while there I wasn’t sure I’d be able to run it at all. Power walk if ya gotta, that...

The Wine & Dine 10K began with step one of any runDisney race: I bolted straight out of bed before 2:30am. Whew, disaster averted. At least I didn’t use the in-room telephone wakeup calls this trip; those things are TERRIFYING. I crept through the room in an effort to not wake Becky (she was not running the 10K and...

Dangit, runDisney, you got me again! Despite my self-avowed wariness of challenges (which I have admittedly reneged on a lot), and despite my desire to save a little money for other things, runDisney just had to do it to me: for 2023, the Two Course Challenge is themed to FIGMENT. Figment!! I love Figment!!!!! Which is how, stupidly, I...

It’s my favorite annual trip report – my WDW Marathon trip! See all the posts in this trip report here. Onward! Right so, when we left off this trip report, I had just finished up the 2023 Walt Disney World Marathon and taken a bus back to All-Star Sports. As is often the case for me, I was craving...
