haha! You guys are bad/good(?) influences. There are some rooms, but nothing super cheap. Flights are reasonable. All told, with race registration, it’d cost me over a 1K for the weekend. Today is my wedding anniversary, should I tell my husband, this is what I want? Oh, and tell him I’m going solo :laughing:

Yeah I’m bunking with a male friend. Probably not a great idea for you to join us as part of an anniversary present from your DH, lol!

He’s not the jealous type at all, but even that might make him go :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Yesterday’s long run was supposed to be 12.5 miles. I got through 6.5 before I had to listen to my body and call it a day. My hips were screaming. I went home, took my arthritis meds (should I have taken that before I ran…yes) and iced.
I don’t want to over do it and take myself out before the race, but I am a little bit worried that I’m maxing out early and won’t have the endurance built up to finish all the miles. I think I could walk this race and still make the time window, but I don’t want to have to do that.
Maybe I’m hitting one of those walls and that means I’ll have a really, really great day next month?

You’ll finish. You’ve got this. Okay it safe and conservative like you are. Consider slowing the pace a bit, take more walk breaks. The goal is to not bonk and you won’t bonk!

At @OBNurseNH’s invitation I’m hopping on here with y’all!! Thanks for including me. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts: Yesterday, I signed up for the Fairy Tale Challenge during the Princess Half Weekend. It’ll be my first RunDisney experience. Can’t wait to learn from all of you! :running_woman:t2:

Do you get massages or have you tried Arrosti? Sometimes working on that fascia can help the aches and pains. And we’re still 12 weeks out - you’ve got this!

Edit: Shoot, I just realized you don’t have 12 weeks left since you’re doing the W&D - but I still think that You’ve got this!! :raised_hands:
