Hooray!

Hooray, indeed.

And that sentence I wrote is atrocious. One might think I've been sick AND reading student papers lately.

So who's going to this? What special preparations, if any, have you taken to prepare to run at night?

Well, for me it is indeed the twilight zone....I am soooooooooooo bummed out! The short story is that I planned my trip to run the 13k and invited a bunch of family.

I invited them and further woo'ed them with discounted Disney tickets that you get when you register as a participant. Well, as luck would have it I sprained my ankle and now I'm completely out.

I hadn't yet registered so that part is okay...the bummer is that I was really looking forward to the discounted Disney Tickets . Apparantly it's a password that you enter at the Disney Sports Complex 13k page. Has anyone gotten their password yet? Would anyone terribly mind sharing the password with me and my bum ankle?

My family and my wallet will greatly appreciate your kindness.

You guys are all awesome!! The best for you!

katiesue~ you are doing the race at Disneyland? I have looked at that but don't think I could do it. Walk/run, maybe. I would like to see if I could do it {how far is that exactly?} but not be too put out if I don't make it.

Flying home from Florida that day....Thank God!

I'm registered for this event, but fate has decreed I won't be able to join in. I've been cast in a paid theatrical production, and that will be a Saturday night, during which I will most definitely be on stage. (i'll be Tevye in Fiddler On The Roof, by the way, for six weeks starting Oct. 16th, at Orlando's Starlight Dinner Theater, for those of you who might be in town.) Anyhow, I wonder if my registration is transferable or refundable? I'll check tomorrow.

I'll miss seeing you at the race, flippyshark, but that's cool that you got the part. Break a leg! Hopefully we can get together sometime that weekend if your schedule permits. We(my coworker who's running with me and I) are planning to Boma on Sunday night. No reservations yet, so anyone who would like to join, let me know!

I am more of a night owl, so I usually run after work in the evenings anyway. It will be weird running that late though. I'm not expecting to set any speed records.

We're doing the 5K (3.1 miles) on Sunday. There is also a half marathon on Monday. I'll barely survive the 5K no way I'm doing a half marathon. Maddy and I are more along the walk/run pray we don't get swept plan. Swanie and her little swanie have been training and plan to run and make us look bad

The course looks fun but the map is so vague we can't exactly figure out parts of it. Map on Page 21 You start in Timon go through Disneyland then through DCA and end up back in Timon. We were a little annoyed since last years course started at Mickey & Friends so we booked the Disneyland Hotel for the weekend thinking we'd be close to the start. Oh well the walk to Timon will be a good warm up.

That is all sold out, isn't it?

I did a 5K once.

It was gruelling, I ran the whole way {a lot for me}. What would get me is running past all of those things.

I haven't been running much. Only a mile {in two halves} a day. How are you training in this heat????

Training? hahahaha

Maddy and I ran one day last week. I have been doing some pool laps otherwise not much. Swanie's been running on the treadmill but I can't run on them. I feel like I'm falling off. Walking's fine but running not so much.
