Resort Reflections – Animal Kingdom Lodge Part 1

Posted on by AllEars
I’m often asked “What is your favorite resort?”, which is actually a difficult question to answer — much like “What is your favorite restaurant?” is a difficult to answer. My experience with just about anything Disney is that it’s not just the resort or meal itself, but also the ambience, the cast members, the themeing, … Continue reading "Resort Reflections – Animal Kingdom Lodge Part 1"

Beating the Pace Problem

Posted on by Mike Scopa

For the 2008 WDW Half-Marathon the pace requirements call for a 16-minute/mile pace, plus 10 minutes to let all the participants cross the start line. It’s a bit more complicated than just that. Assuming … Continue reading "Beating the Pace Problem"

Friend or Foe?

Posted on by Mike Scopa
Once you decide to take up a running program you need to focus on a couple of things, most importantly your running gear. Of course the prime focus should be on comfort. That means comfortable running shoes, shorts/pants, and a top that wicks the moisture away from your body. Can’t forget the socks. Comfort rules. … Continue reading "Friend or Foe?"
