We are on our way home after a wonderful run-cation. Goofy was awesome, except for the heat in the last few miles of the full where I had an ice pack in one hand and a sponge in the other starting in HS. It was great meeting several of you at HH, Marathon morning, and DATW. Rise of the Resistance lived up to its hype and crowds thinned a little during the week. So another great Disney trip is in the books. See y’all at
Star Wars Rival Run!

So sorry to hear, but you knew what you needed to do to be safe DH is one of the 72 left, but it wasn’t easy this year. We are seriously contemplating whether to do anything longer than the half next year. I’m glad there’s a little time to decide before registration!That was hot out there, especially after AK for the back of the pack. I am unfortunately no longer Perfectly Goofy or Perfectly Dopey. I pulled myself at mile 19 because of the heat and humidity. I couldn't stay hydrated and recognized the heat stress symptoms that were setting in. So this is the first time since 2006 I have not crossed the marathon finish line. This was warmer than 2007 and 2013. I have to decide if my runDisney career is over or if I try again next year for redemption and start a new streak.
Overall 6 Perfect Goofy runners did not finish the full, so there are now 72 remaining.
Sorry to hear about you and others who have the flu. My family is having coughing fits, but hoping it stops there!I just came from the doctor, who confirmed that I have the flu, Type A. Hopefully, all of us with the flu bug will be well soon. I had my flu shot back in October, so maybe it won’t be quite full-blown. I think DH is getting it, too. Vacationing can be tough!
