SAFD: I have many...take my money Disney ... please!
I have a favorite full-zip dark grey sweat shirt with hood. It is solid grey with white stitching on the seams and a white pull string. It has a logo on the left breast. It does not have anything on the back. I have two of them. One of them says 1955 and the other says 1971. Mickey is in between the first two numbers and the last two. Found it several years ago on main street next to Casey's Corner.
@MissLiss279 ... Sadly the zipper pull broke a while ago, and I haven't worn it in a bit.
I have a conspiracy theory that Disney makes the zippers fragile on purpose. That way they get you coming back to buy another one in about a year or two. The zipper pull-tab broke on both of my hoodies. I love them so much that I found a couple of key rings that matched the zipper color and threaded them through the hole. Works great!
I have the red and grey hat that has the worn-out look. It says Property of Walt Disney Word Est. 1971. It doesn't need the worn out look anymore, because I have had it since either 2008 or 2010. I wear it all the time. I see people with a new version of the hat and I think it looks too bright...it needs to be sun bleached and rubbed in the dirt!

As for the registering for Marathon Weekend:
I do not have a problem with registration opening in May. Whether you register or not is a personal choice. I understand all the reasons why someone would not want to register, but I also understand the importance of those that feel the need to register. I am in the camp of registering.
I need to have a goal, a light at the end of the tunnel, hope that I can return to the happiest place on earth and do the thing I love the most.
I have put together my training plan for Dopey 2021. It is not a normal training plan, as I am not an expert, and tweak things as the needs arise. It is a 43 week plan that I started back on March 16, 2020. It includes 203 runs, and a total of 1192.05 miles.
There may come a time in the future where Disney postpones the race or circumstances put additional stress on me for that race. When they do show up, I will deal with them in a responsible and mature way. I even have a backup plan to do the Dopey this year virtually...I only turn 50 once and I need to make sure I complete the promise I made to myself.
I empathize with those that are forced to not participate this year due to their own personal risks, challenges, and choices.
Stay safe and healthy everyone! Keep lacing up those runners and putting in the work. I love looking at everyone's training on Strava.
