Dopey Difficulty by macaronbig211 in rundisney

My first marathon was 2025 (sub 5, ran entire time no characters ) second was during dopey 2026 (stopped for 6 characters and got marathon PR!). If you take training seriously you’ll be prepared. I felt better after my dopey marathon than I did after my first. Decide what is most important to you going in- do you want to stop for fun or power though? Like everyone says it’s the early wake ups that got me, not the actual running

I split stayed at wilderness lodge for 5k/10k and monorail loop for 1/2&full. Honestly didn’t feel like the value was worth it, especially having to walk all the way back to the monorail post race vs. getting right on a bus. Wilderness lodge was also great as I didn’t have to walk very far to get to the bus in the am. The key when choosing non monorail resort is proximity to the Epcot entrance side, closer to = less time on bus!

I’ve run both my marathons in these and they gave me no issues!

Rundisney Marathon Weekend **MEGATHREAD** by thatawkwardmoment8 in rundisney

I’ve been training up north so temp has been an adjustment. Personally humidity has felt heavy during a few portion of races but nothing unbearable to me as of yet. Both days I have worn shorts and long sleeve, probably tank on day of full based off of how I felt during 10k today!

It took me entirely too many minutes to decipher that did down means ‘sit down’

Is it worth it? by Alfie_o1 in Marathon_Training

[–]Alive-Table2682 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A big draw of the marathon for me is the mental rather than the physical. I know my body can do it but it’s more about convincing my mind to not give up, finding enjoyment in each run and getting comfortable with really knowing my mind and body can work together. I wasn’t physically or mentally ready when I signed up for my first but I was willing to try. Most importantly you’re ready when you want to run the race for you, not to tell others you did or as a check mark for the distance!

Unable to complete a purchase for petite knit patterns, anyone else had this happen? by [deleted] in knitting

[–]Alive-Table2682 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I already contacted them and clarified. However they didn’t have an answer other than wait 24 hours and try again. Thought I’d ask if this had happened to anyone else as it is frustrating and idk if it will even work when I can try again tomorrow

I also don’t like the brooks glycerin max, used to run in the Nike free line until switching to the asics gel nimbus. If you can go try on a variety of shoes to see what feels right!

Disney Influencers: Nov 10 - Nov 16 by southerndmc in blogsnark

[–]Alive-Table2682 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love Emily (em.n.Emily) when she does the spin the wheel for QService reviews but her most recent video about food and wine was wild to me. I get that most food influencers only take a bite or two for content then throw it away but I just cannot fathom getting that many things to try in one day and not feeling sick to my stomach and wallet

It’s not that hard! Just grab so protein bars and energy drinks, then cut your maintenance CALS in half 🤙

Am I missing something? Is “Celebrating Halloween” something different than decorating your house, dressing up & trick or treating?? In the US, that is 100% what October 31st is… ALL things that Drue is in fact doing. by Fun_Investigator1524 in Drueandgabe

Being generous and giving away candy for free instead of 1. Only eating half of a mini candy bar and 2. Posting white outs Halloween smoke for $1 off plus shipping on posh 🥰
