What would it take to make you stop going?

In relation to Disney Parks but not specific to a single resort

Hey boilerbabe! Thanks! :mrgreen:

I do run, yup! :D I'd love to do the Disney Marathon sometime too. My goal is to do the 2010 or 2011 NYC marathon as well.

That's awesome! We did the Disney 1/2 in '05, it was the best 1/2 I've ever run!!! My dream is to run it again, it's just almost impossible for me to get time off from work in Jan. I work in the fitness industry and this is our busy time. You know, New's Years Resolutions! But, if you ever get the chance to run Disney, I highly recommend it!!! :D I also LOVE the Tower of Terror 13K!!!! 8-)

I was looking at the Tower of Terror one too. It looked totally fun! Ahhh, yes, I know all about the New Year's resolution crowd at the gym... I used to work at one. :D

Whatever Disney does, they go 110%, so I can imagine how awesome it is!!!!!!!!

I don't think I'm going to be ready for the marathon this year! I think we better wait until next year... :mrgreen:

hockeygirl, try the 1/2 first if you're not ready for the full! There are other races in Disney throughout the year that aren't as far too! Just a thought! :)

That's a good idea Boilerbabe! :mrgreen: I may do a couple close to home, then see what Disney has to offer later in the year.

Yeah, OK Soarin. :P I'm scared of you, you'll run me into the ground! ha ha ha

It would take Disney turning into Universal. Or, closing Epcot and Animal Kingdom. Short of that, I can't imagine.

If it's still there I will go to any part of it. I'm a freak that way.

The only thing I can think of that would keep me away from ever returning to a Disney park would be the ticket price. I'm not sure what the magic price point is that I would say, "That's too much!" but I'm sure that would probably be the only thing.
