I'm jealous of your marathon experience, you all had a great time and forged some really great friendships. It's amazing to me how runDisney has been a part of making some great friendships of runners all over the country! It still amazes me.Lenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497080625352955794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8115633875439405682.post-70780892267560556092013-08-02T07:49:18.865-07:002013-08-02T07:49:18.865-07:00Those are helpful then!

I am a notorious list maker and have had my DDD packing list done for about 4 months now in anticipation for the trip. :) I also have a daily schedule done too...I'm such a planner it's sick sometimes!Lenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497080625352955794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8115633875439405682.post-64638112250332412162013-08-02T07:47:43.763-07:002013-08-02T07:47:43.763-07:00Oh no, you are far from the only one having them. ...Oh no, you are far from the only one having them.

The worst was where I finished the race but wasn't sure if they ran out of medals OR if I lost mine, I had no recollection of even getting it (all about the bling!). The best scenario of that day was nothing in comparison to the day itself. Never would I have imagined meeting such amazing new friends and doing the conga across that finish line. <br /><br />Get all those nerves out now, so all the "worst case scenarios" stay in dreamland and you have magical races.

I go back to my hotel to get it and by the time I get back to the corrals, everyone has already gone and I can't find the people I was supposed to run with. *sigh* It just makes me more careful about my packing, I guess. :/ Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13666562341448768865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8115633875439405682.post-47278141986980173212013-08-01T18:16:50.047-07:002013-08-01T18:16:50.047-07:00I'm so glad bad dreams about races are not unc...I'm so glad bad dreams about races are not uncommon. Not that I think they're a good thing, but just that I'm not the only weirdo having them.

I'm not sure, but I only get multiples of nightmares from RD races.<br /><br />I love David Guetta too! His stuff is so great to run to and easy to zone out with!

Wait, didn't you blog about that already?<br /><br />It is a sign your a real runner that is genuinely concerned about the race and it's experience. At least that's what I tell myself. :)Lenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497080625352955794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8115633875439405682.post-41350446627664520302013-08-01T15:23:51.844-07:002013-08-01T15:23:51.844-07:00Now I have race nightmares to look forward to!

Luckily I don't feel too bad when I wake up, I usually laugh at how funny it is that I'm dreaming of running. This means I'm a real runner if I have race dreams!
