Disney Anyone??
I may can work it out... I know my wife, dad, and mom are going to be coimg down also but I don't think they are getting in unitl late friday night or even saturday morning after the half. I know I am going to the expo for sure.
Trevor Douglas YOU ARE AN IRONMAN!
I will be there with bells on :)
I am going to go to the information session I saw in an email on friday I think at 1:00 about the goofy race. I will give a shout when I get into town.
Trevor Douglas YOU ARE AN IRONMAN!
Is that the,
1:00 - 1:30 p.m. Jon Hughes, "Last Minute Tips and Information" and "Goofy's Challenge Review"
On Friday?
I'll be there.
Us Goofy B@$t@rds need to stick together :D
I'd definitely be interested in a Trifuel get together, either pre or post race. If anyone has thoughts on places to meet, make a suggestion.

PS: Am I the only one here who is doing "just" the marathon? I feel like such a slacker. :D

"Only" the marathon? You are a slacker. :D
yep that is the one that I am going to go to. Just to make sure I get everything right. It would suck to run both and then not be able to get the medals for it. I doubt I will get there any beofre that but I will be there for that one. SO any time after that is cool with me.

That could be a plan for the trifuel gang.
I think we should at some point meet up and hit 'Captain Jacks'
Britta can vouch for that.
My girl friend and I are flying in on Wednesday so anytime after that is good for me...Except Saturday and Sunday morning...I'll have my hands full both days.
I:00 Friday could be good...and definately for beers on Sunday!
Best of luck to all...and No, just because you are doing the Mary only doesn't mean you are a slacker...Lazy,maybe, but not a slacker.:)

Okay, I can go with that, not a slacker, just lazy.
Only a marathon :eek:

I am not lazy or a slacker :)
I would rather not commit to something mid day...evening would be better --will be playing when not running.
It sounds like Sunday evening might work for a lot of us. Is this Captain Jacks place OK for beers/food?
PJT the Lazy
As Brittda can attest Captain Jacks is good eats and drinks, and a good place to wind down. We might be able to meet up before at the expo on Friday so we can put a face to the name. We can support each other during the events.
Sounds like this could be a large trifuel group.

Its actually mostly drinks. They make the BEST margaritas!!!! The big food places are on the other end, ie: Bongo's, House of Blues, Planet Hollywood etc. Its down by the water on the West side (I believe) of Downtown Disney (the side where the big World of Disney store is) right near by is the Mickey Sports store, and the Ghirdelli Chocolate store. Maybe after the race before heading over to Pleasure Island???????
I can't make the expo on Friday. Captain Jacks on Sunday night sounds great. Is 7:00 OK for everyone?
Sounds good to me!!
Okay anybody who doesn't have my info already.
cell# 973-600-9634.
I will be at the expo on Friday, and definitely at the Goofy challenge meeting at 1pm.
It appears we will also be meeting at Captain Jacks in Downtown Disney Sunday night.
See you there.
Scott

Driving down there? Are we supposed to call you every ten minutes this time? :D

Don't have to worry about the bike this time so I am taking a plane this time. :cool:

Esp since I couldn't track Scott online. He was broken.

I ran my first ever marathon as part of the goofy challenge. I ran the half in 1:35 and the full in 3:19. Overall good I feel for a first time. Was very hard though and I got sucky placement in the corrals. I had the last letter corral on both days!!!
Trevor Douglas YOU ARE AN IRONMAN!
wow sldotter! For a first full... and doing it the day after a half... damn! Nice job!! Heh... it would still be a great job if just a half or just a full... :)
Miles of Life --- Powered by MarkyV
well thanks!!!! I am thinking about running just the full next year to see what I can do. Maybe break under 3:00 if I am lucky.
Trevor Douglas YOU ARE AN IRONMAN!
Awesome! I don't think it would be that hard for you...

Wow...I agree...great performance man....
I can tell that you are doing a great job...
Congrats again

me too!! did you know that kyle petty ran in the marathon this year too! maybe he can run faster than he can drive his race car! HAHA. Also a golfer died at the finish of the half marathon on saturday. SO far I have done two disney events and in both of them someone has died. Maybe I am bad luck!

I checked and my times aren't listed.
Fortunately, I ran with Anton start to finish for the 1/2 and the Full.
I checked his times.
1:52-1/2 Marathon
25:50- 5k
4:38- Full Marathon
They unofficially called doing all 3 events the 'Dopey Challenge'
Anton- Thanks for being my running partner :D
Yes congrats! Glad your times were much faster than your posting of the results! ;)

....and I thought I was insane doing many miles. Wow dude, way to go! You cetrainly are Dopey Challenged. Could you walk after?
I am hobbling a little bit.
I think the 42.4 miles aggravated the ankle issue from last week when I stepped in a pothole during the New Years Eve run.
Folks don't listen to that Blah,Blah,Blah..Scott was great to run with and his ankle was only PARTIALY swollen after the races! It was a real blast...It was Marathon # 22 for me and the most fun I have ever had...That Mouse Rocks!
Scott kept me laughing and I think we were a help to each other...But, remember Scott,..What happens on the race course stays on the race course!
We just kept moving on Saturday,saving gas for Sunday and Sunday was about having a dam good time.
For all of you guys patting us on the back (thanks!) I'll put this into perspective...If you run ultras you know that a weekend like the Goofy Challange is just a regular training weekend. If I extend this out to a possible 100 miler or 24 hour run this spring,Disney turns out to be a long, catered and impossibly fun training run!
And Scott...anytime my young Padwan!

Congrats great athletic achievement.....
Next year guys...I surly be there with you...

Went to the doctors today I have a sprained/strained ankle.
He said it probably happened on New Years Eve.
It started to heal when I didn't run all week before Disney.
Then of course I overdid it at Disney, so I interrupted the healing process. I have to take it easy for a few more days.
He said I can try running on Saturday.
Saturday??? But that's umm.... 4 days away!
Hope you heal as fast as Libor runs! (I mean fast, ok? I'm COMPLEMENTING HIM)

I am hitting the pool and the bike(on the trainer) this week.
Some heat and stretching should do the trick until Saturday.

I think that is 'Trislothlete'. I know because I am.
And I have to say it is tough to be nuttier than you!
I have to work on it. You are Canadian!! :D
Terrance and Phillip all the way! Oh and Ike too. We are all from the same land.

I will be down at Disney in a couple of weeks to do the
"Goofy Challenge" + 5k.
I know a few of the Trifuel gang are going to be down at Disney as well.
Brittda, and PJT come to mind.
Maybe we can get together. Anybody up for that?? :D
