Based on a recent experience, I'm going to disagree with this. Back in January, I was due to fly home from California, when they cancelled my flight about an hour before I was due to check in. We were then told that there was NOTHING that would get me home for the next two days "due to...

Ditto both of these sentiments!

The standard rooms are only in the interior hallway wings i.e. near the lazy river. These wings are also closer to the food court, the bus pickup and Volcano Bay.

But keep in mind that there will be characters and parks and bands and people that aren't on your regular walks. I would suspect that that will make a difference.

If you feel that you might have to use something that you haven't used in the past, I would recommend using the most food-like thing possible. I've used things like applesauce packets, pretzels, hard candy, rice krispie treats, pop tarts, maple syrup, etc. It seems like "real food" is less...

YES!! I wind up wearing anywhere between an XL and 3XL (and even that has been tight) in the jackets. With the current inability to return pre-orders, I would never buy a jacket unless/until Disney starts providing measurements for sizes at the time of pre-order.

You aren't kidding! The humidity in Florida makes me feel like I am drinking the air rather than breathing it. One of the tactics that works best for me during the Disney races is carry my own hydration and then at the Disney provided water stops grab two cups and dump one over each shoulder...

You get the same amount of endurance from walking as you do from running. Really, you do! There are Galloway runners who do ALL of their long runs as walks and do just fine. And the bike should help with your cardio. You've got this!

You can choose to disagree, but that is what someone whose plans have gotten probably tens of thousands of people across the finish line says to do. Admittedly, the back to back simulations in the Galloway training plan having you walking as well, but I know many people run all of their...

Jeff Galloway's advice is to do the half marathon as slow as you can without getting in trouble with the balloon ladies. If you can walk it, all the better.

I just hop on I-4. The entrance ramp is right next to the hotel and I-4 has always been wide open. After the race, there is sometimes a little bit of congestion, but it usually isn't too terrible.

Here is a photo: It does not have a freezer section.

Since everyone is talking hotels and rates, I just want to mention that I have a suite at Universal's Cabana Bay for just under $200. The lowest priced Universal premier hotel (that gets you free Express Pass) is $325 and a two bedroom suite at the Endless Summer hotels is $150. And those are...

In my head while running through that parking lot, I could see the meme "Disney World - We've got Blizzard Beach!" and "Disneyland saying 'Hold My Beer'"

Unfortunately HHN really isn't my type of thing. If my travel partner for this trip was flying in earlier that night, I'd consider the Disney Halloween party. But this is a super quick and hopefully budget wise trip.

Not a HHN fan, but I was watching for the announcement of this year's dates pretty closely because I'm going to be staying at Universal while in Orlando for the runDisney races, arriving on Halloween. I was hoping that HHN wouldn't extend through the weekend, but no such luck. So now I have two...

There is the option to register another runner (there will be a button at the bottom of the first page to do so) with your registration. However, keep in mind that neither registration is guaranteed until you are all paid and from listening to the buzz on several groups I suspect that Goofy is...

March running: Now it's taper time for Springtime Surprise followed by a local half marathon the Saturday after SS.

There is usually a medical tent around Mile 1 where you can stop. The one time that I had to pull myself during the marathon due to injury, there were A LOT of people who stopped there to wait for a ride back to the start. If you need to stop or if you need help and are not near a medical...

The 2019 MW was my first half/runDisney race weekend. Going in, I kept saying "one and done" and we all know how that works out. I know that @DisneyGamer11 asked specifically about the half marathons so that's the question that I tried to answer. But I did want to mention that, for me, the...
