    I'm not doing it this year, but I have done about 8 half marathons at DIsney- I just did the night race- the Winde & DIne half marathon 2 weeks ago- you will love it- Disney puts on a spectacular race event!!!

    I'm only doing the 5K but I'm friending you anyway. The 1/2 Food and Wine next Sept. is my next big goal! I did the Halloween Disney 5K and loved it!!!

    Good luck! What's your training schedule?

    Thanks! Is it true you should train for a 15 minute mile? I am very excited but nervous too!

    This is one of my goals, probably not this year coming though! I live in central FL now and I am super excited to have the opportunity to do that!

    I know Disney 1/2's enforce the 16 minute miles to avoid being swept. I've never participated in a 1/2 but I've read several blogs or stories where people were swept at Disney 1/2's. Some people I recently read about were swept at mile 10. They recommend you train for a 15 min. mile giving room for bathroom and water breaks. There are also optional character interactions along the way and other stuff to photograph which will detract from your overall time.
