2014 WDW Marathon Weekend Official INTERCOT Meet

[JMTStone]

Signed up and paid for the 5K. I'm to scared to do the 1/2 or 10K as I also want to enjoy the weekend. And in Pittsburgh... its hard to training the winter. 5 miles on the Elliptical 3 days a week is not like running. Will need extra shirts to wear to cheer everyone else on as well.

Anyway.... I'm still thinking Boardwalk (to be near JellyRolls) and Jon wants to come. But I'm not bringing any kids.

[BrerGnat]

My husband and I are in for the 10K and my husband will be doing the Half.

Unfortunately, we can't get there early enough to do the 5K. My mom will be watching our boys for us, but she has limited mobility and energy in general, and 3 days is the most I can really feel comfortable leaving her to watch our boys.

Our plan is to fly in Thursday morning and back out Sunday morning.

Not sure where we will be staying yet. Will figure that out when Disney actually makes it possible to look at availability for January.

Yeah! So glad to see you again Nat! Hopefully there will be a nice bounceback rate for you on your August trip so you can book then!

Yay! We have to meet this time!!! I missed you in October!

Yay Natalie!. I'm excited to see you again. I don't know where I am staying yet either. I am trying to convince my husband and mom to stay with my kids and bring them over Friday night. That would give me Wed, Thurs and most of Friday alone and then the family here Fri-Sun.

[BrerGnat]

Yeah! So glad to see you again Nat! Hopefully there will be a nice bounceback rate for you on your August trip so you can book then!

Ooh, didn't even think of that! Thanks for the reminder.

[BrerGnat]

Definitely!

All registered for the 5K. Question for anyone not running. My wife is NOT running and was wondering where everyone who isn't running are gonna be hanging out? I don't want to leave her alone while I attempt to not make a fool of myself running. Thanks for any info and cant wait to see everyone. ALso I asked on FB but where is everyone thinking of staying? We will be down from Wednesday till sunday then doing the Disney Dream 4 night cruise.

Justin, Christine and I need to put our heads together and come up with some ideas and work out some of the logistics for the 'meet'. I'm hoping we'll have an organized cheering group.

[Yungbuck73]

Ok sounds great I have the utmost confidence that the 2 of you will come up with something great.

Yeah, for the half, I'm going to need some cheering buddies! I'm down with traveling as a pack to the different spectator areas.

For the half, I'm definitely going to suggest we meet early and cheer on Main Street, then move to the bus loading area at Epcot to see our runners just before they finish.

[Dsnygirl]

So, we are out... totally have not been keeping up with Disney events, and didn't even realize registration was open until yesterday... went online tonight to just see how much the 10K would be, and BAM!! Sold out! Holy smokes... I wouldn't have been ready to commit to it until fall anyway, so there wasn't even a stones throw chance we would have made it in.

Guess we will catch you all at the next meet!!

Your wife and my husband can hang out. His knees won't take it. I did sign him up for the next day's breakfast with me.

I'll be staying at the Boardwalk. Ready for any Jellyrolls activity.

Sorry we won't see you this time around.

We'll be at Beach Club if not the Yacht Club! Can't wait for Jellyrolls!

[Dopey's Girl]

I'm doing Beach/Yacht Club too Nikki! Love that area so much, and intend on enjoying Stormalong Bay as much as I can!

[BrerGnat]

We are also aiming for Beach or Yacht Club. I guess we'd settle for the BWI if we had to.

We really want to be in the Epcot resort area, but barring that, I'd probably try for Contemporary since it makes getting to the MK easy on the morning that I will be a spectator.

[JMTStone]

I'll be part of the 5K running but for the rest, I plan on traveling with the #runICOT cheer squad to cheer on the INTERCOT runners.

At some point, we should gather around Gary's column and sing "The Yeti is Down"

[Tri Minnie]

It is so exciting to see what everyone is running, and I know I will really appreciate all of those who are going to be cheering. Although I was originally planning on the half, my husband signed me up for the full. In fairness to him, I asked him to surprise me
