Joining in here for any news/updates. This will be my first RunDisney event, and I signed up for the series. Pluto has always been my favorite, so this is a great starting point. Hoping that these 5K runs keep me motivated and on track! Looking froward to it!
I use the Nike Running Club app.
MapMyRun.com is good for mapping a run ahead of time...they also have smartphone apps. My husband uses the RunKeeper app, and I have a Garmin watch that I use for my runs.
Found out that I'm having surgery in June, so my virtual runs will be virtual walks, but hey, I'll have some good motivation to get moving again!
When is everyone doing the June run? How do you plan out your exact 3.1 distance beforehand?
I'll be doing mine towards the end of the month since I'm still in recovery mode from injury and illness. Easiest way to plan your route is to just do and out and back - 2.5k out then turn around and go back the way you came! May be a boring way to do it, but you don't need to do any measuring in advance doing it that way. Having said that, I'll probably try to map out a 5k circuit for each run on MapMyRun.
Sure. Give yourself more time. I'm thinking I may do mine June 10, since it is my weekend off from work. I'm a bit of a dork, I guess-- For the first one, I am going to end my run at a local church that all the little girls think of as Cinderella's castle. It seemed fitting, lol. It may wind up being out and back, but I'd like to make up a good loop for it.
Not sure yet, need to set dates for them, but more towards the middle/end of June I think, then same for July, & August so it's a month between each. Ours will just be an out and back that we typical run for convenience & know the distance.When is everyone doing the June run? How do you plan out your exact 3.1 distance beforehand?

Random Question: Do you submit your time then you get your medal? Or, do they do they send the medals all at once? I guess how do they handle all of the shipping of stuff?
