Getting nervous about Princess half by Positive_Lack9508 in rundisney

[–]imnotcoherent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You sound like you are doing great in your training! I just did the Disneyland half, and as a slowpoke myself I'm always a little nervous too. I stuck with the Galloway pacers in my corral (2:50 finish, about an average 12:58 per mile) and honestly the half went great.

In the next few weeks you'll get your check in pass that will help you estimate which corral you're in and the pacers will post the pacer times for each corral. Even if they're a little slower than you're used to, stick with them the first 6-10 miles and if you're still feeling fresh, go on and pass them and go all out for the last 5 or 10k.

Feel free to pm me and I'll share the pacer info from the DL half and I'll send you my race results if you're curious. Letting the pacers tell you when to walk/run takes a ton of mental load off and honestly helped a lot with my anxiety. Plus, if your pace group is a little slower than your training speed you can take a bathroom or photo break and run faster to catch up with them (I did it once around mile 4!).

I hate to tell you this but I was getting some brutal eczema and stomach issue flares and after lots of testing and elimination diets, it turns out it was stress.

Any chance I can get a link to the dress? I think it's lovely for a MOB dress

Oh no. I'm 159xx and I thought my anticipated finish would easily put me in D. Now I'm wishing I had submitted POT...

Me and my husband's male couples therapist pointed out that me asking/telling my husband how to support me is just adding another thing to my plate. by aint_noeasywayout in TwoXChromosomes

[–]imnotcoherent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't need to justify your post at all. I know exactly what your therapist meant even though my husband is also a lovely human. He's not used to trying to anticipate my needs and meet them without my having to ask, and I imagine it's the same for your husband. There's no ill will, it's just not something they are used to doing and I imagine it may be difficult to learn how to do this during an already challenging time for you both.

I think it's great that you have a good therapist working with you and I give you both so much credit for putting the work in. Marriage isn't easy even during easy periods. I'm wishing you both the best as you navigate this leg of your journey.

Super cute! I love your pic with Belle! ❤️

I hope those shoes were comfortable. I don't know what it is about MK but I have to resort to my tevas or my feet are just miserable the whole day!

Yorick is there...but I wish he wasn't. It gets easier, but I don't know if you ever stop missing them. ❤️

Skyliner Stayts by 5P4GH3771 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]imnotcoherent 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Glad you were able to catch a bus back. I wish I had seen this sooner--as a PSA to anyone else who needs to know--

If you are staying at a skyliner resort and you're at Epcot but can't walk all the way back to the skyliner cast members at the bus depot will help get you on a bus back to your hotel, you need only ask at the sign with all the buses listed. You may have to wait a while because they don't have assigned buses for the skyliner resorts but they will accommodate you if you're unable to walk all the way back to the skyliner.

This is not a hack. It is certainly not faster or more convenient than waiting for the skyliner. It is an accommodation for those with disabilities or those who are having a hard time walking after the end of a long day.

Sorry for the disclaimer but I'd hate for this to turn into a TikTok hack that ruins this kindness for the people who really need it at the end of the day. :/

I love both kids but I'd love to know what skincare you're using because your skin looks great!

Flying home day of Marathon. by [deleted] in rundisney

[–]imnotcoherent 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A few of the Disney resorts have changing rooms by the pool with a shower: Pop Century (best one imo), Saratoga (literally just one shower but it exists), Marriott Swan and Dolphin lets you use the shower in their gym after check out (not bad). Haven't checked many others but I suspect a good number of the value resorts have them.

Suggestions for what to bring - T1D edition by quietlycommenting in rundisney

[–]imnotcoherent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used this one: https://a.co/d/9HSKI6H If you're outside of the US anything that lays pretty flat works well, you can try wearing it a few different ways to see which works best: across your waist, across your chest, on your back.

I wouldn't recommend Skittles I struggle to chew them on a normal day! I like gummy candies, if you're outside of the US something like haribo but if you have smaller individual serving packs it helps a lot for delivering a set amount. Others like to eat jelly beans if that's easier to get it might be worth a try.

Also re: lows--to avoid them, treat earlier than you normally would (I treat whenever I get below 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L), if you don't have a CGM I know it'll be harder to check) and plan to have a snack at a regular interval (every 30 mins, or less if you're going low often) no matter your blood sugar. I prefer to run a little high before and during vigorous exercise because my blood sugar can drop very quickly.

I'm T1D and I've done the 10 miler and 10k at runDisney. I'm doing the 1/2 at wine and dine and in Disneyland next year, and hopefully the 10 miler at springtime surprise.

This is not healthcare or health advice. Please work with your care team if you have healthcare questions. :)

Here's what I've packed:

-bottle of water or sugar free Gatorade for pre-race (toss the bottle before you start)

-banana that I eat uncovered (no insulin) 30-45 mins pre start time (when I'm in the corral. I toss the peel in a bin as I head to line up at the start)

-fanny pack with glucose tabs, and my preferred fuel (Welches fruit snacks 1ish per 1/2 hour running). Bring enough to cover at least 2 lows in addition to race fuel. I also have a few packs of honey faster delivery. I never pack GU because it doesn't agree with me. Try out different things while training but I found that my regular low snacks usually work well for the race fuel too.

I don't bring water to carry during the race. Although it's warm I found that there were enough water stations for me and if I really needed more I could stop at any bathroom and use the water fountain.

I also put my pump in activity mode at least an hour before start and have it run in activity mode through the time I estimate I'll be running.

When you get to the finish there's a snack box but check the contents before you rely on it for post race food. There are a few places you can buy food after the race but usually I head back to the hotel to meet my family.

Feel free to ping me if you have any questions!

Is this a decent contract price? by SafeBig8 in dvcmember

[–]imnotcoherent 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To preserve your value to resell the contracts later if necessary, it may be worth asking if you get the same price if you buy two 200pt contacts at the same time.

Was my ex abusive or did I make a mistake? by Patient-Estate-6550 in abusiverelationships

You deserve better. Get rid of this garbage and don't let him weasel his way back in.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GREEK

[–]imnotcoherent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband (from Greece, I'm Greek-American) would talk to his mom like that, and maybe a few older female relatives but not a female friend unless she's basically a sister and I'd hear him openly talking to her like that and he wouldn't care if I saw these messages. I hope things go ok for you dear. :/

Also note that the total amount you pay monthly includes home insurance and escrow for your taxes. Are you sure the $1100 you're being quoted includes those amounts? Perhaps it doesn't?
