Re: Driving Disney World. Advice?

Only a 1.5 for Sleepy? You sound like a tough judge :shock: ;) Nope :) She is one of those "You wanted to go that way at the last junction" navigators. Which way? you may ask. "That way" Which way is that way? "The other way" For all its idiosyncrasies Sat Nav is great...

Re: Driving Disney World. Advice?

We always get a car (believe it or not it comes free with our holiday package. We get a choice of a free rental car or free DME). We always get the free car parking for staying at a resort. The other resorts will let you in if you show the pass and your KttW. Park at The Contemporary and walk to MK?...

Re: 2012 WDW Marathon Weekend

Joe90 - I believe that you are a bad influence on me. You've got me thinking about the full instead of the 5K and the half. For me it's not so much the distance as the amount of time that I feel I would need to invest to properly prepare for a full. I probably need to check with some different sour...

Re: 2012 WDW Marathon Weekend

I heard that there was a nice coast-to-coast medal. no...Dopey is just when you run the 5k race that Friday along with the Half and Full on the weekend. The...

Re: 2012 WDW Marathon Weekend

I'm still thinking about it. 5K, half and full. I might try for quicker times....or better pics......or some kind of memory of running around Epcot at the end of the Marathon. My brain erased all the painful bits :) I notice that I'm starting to convince myself to do it again.........this could get...

Re: 2011 WDW Marathon Weekend

Does the race include a day in a park or are park tickets completely separate? As you run through the parks you don't need a ticket. If you go back later in the day you do need a ticket. All finishers of the Marathon get free entry into a park of there choice on Monday. This is new for this year. T...

Re: 2011 WDW Marathon Weekend

Seems a bit pricey for the amenities...I bet they get a lot of takers though! Drive there in your car. Park in Epcot car park. Take a thermos flask full of coffee and a couple of bagels. Comfy seats in the warm/dry, and a place to recover after the race. Total price. FREE ;) Now, how many park tick...

Re: 2011 WDW Marathon Weekend

How much money are they charging for the RR? Does it include anything as far as treats, drinks and snacks, or is it just a place to rest out of the elements? A continental breakfast will be is available before the race from 3:00 a.m. – 5:30 a.m. The breakfast includes bagels with peanut butter, but...
