I just ask as I'm generally training with DS15 at 5am and it is DARK dark on some of our training trials, so we use the headlamps to give the critters fair warning and to see where our next footfall is going. In most of the videos I see online it's pretty well lit even when it's dark, so it...

related to SAFD re Temp and humidity: a lot of my running for training here is pre-dawn and I run with a good headlamp: Do people feel like they need a headlamp for raceday since the start is decidedly early and dark?

agree. I have one in my backyard, but as far as I can tell it's from 1948 or so, not 1648...

Depends on crowds. They also vary FL cost based on crowd projections. I've done FL at Knotts, CGA and only did it for times when we were making a specific trip to that park and knew we wanted to prioritize getting on as many rides as possible. Also buying in advance I did purchase a FL on a...

Armstrong redwoods also has the benefit of not being as hilly a hike. I was there in November and it was gorgeous. coming from the east bay we also like the stream trail in Redwood reginal park in Oakland. If you can't get a reservation and just want a gorgeous hike, there you go. The trees...

we came back from Hawaii with frozen breast milk and gel packs and it was fine, and we just asked for hot water on the plane to warm bottles.

we traveled with just our standard ice packs, just know that you'll spend 2-3 minutes while they do the chemical "sniffer" on all your stuff if you bring liquids. give yourself 10 extra minutes and expect to get a different experience (all the small ones through the metal detector rather...

hmm... I'll take that into account. It's also her birthday so she gets to choose park: so maybe I'll adjust where we book so she's not reliant upon busses.

Does anyone have a thread or a read on when parks open on marathon day? DW is unlikely to get up early but I'm wondering which park she wants to go to that day and trying to see if she would see me run. OTOH she usually doesn't see me run and she probably wants to enjoy her rope drop at a park.

the free parking at the zoo threw me our first time! I was looking around for how to pay.

just used these vouchers to book tickets for Marathon Weekend 2025.

I've only had it at WDW when booking with pre-existing MDE profiles that have birthdates or ages on them already.

we were having a similar issue with hotel booking b/c DS15 will be 16 by then, but then I tried to use his profile on the hotel reservation and they spit an age mismatch error. it's like their systems can't accurately calculate an age on a certain future date.

OK; now that I've made this...decision... and I'm pondering at lunch, I have questions: Are there advantages to any particular hotel? Is there transportation to the start line from on property hotels for the start? Where is the expo? If I'm not shopping at the expo (which is my general MO for...

TIL: you have to be 18 to do the full. DS 15 was all in on a full but is signed up for the half. He could probably run a decent half tomorrow with no training. I, OTOH have 250 days to get ready for the full...

personally: for time convenience to Disneyland: 1LGB 2SNA 3A/B ...BUR or ONT depending on flight times ... 7..San Diego ... 25 LAX Amenities: All are about the same except BUR and LGB are much more limited on food options, still fine. LAX will take a major step up on this when they have the...
