Maybe if I can entice him with the Food and Wine Festival and going to the Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party all in the same trip he might be swayed? :)Lenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497080625352955794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172069364470647819.post-22636703133838503772014-06-30T22:02:57.276-07:002014-06-30T22:02:57.276-07:00I'm going!

But I've also convinced a friend to join me on the trip. :) <br />This year is probably the last year for Wine & Dine to let someone else pick up your packet, so I suppose I could do something with my husband's bib... Or he'd just end up with a REALLY expensive shirt and bib. lol. <br />Babies are expensive! Maybe 2015? :) Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13666562341448768865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172069364470647819.post-64328247079925407012014-06-30T15:19:49.209-07:002014-06-30T15:19:49.209-07:00I would say defer. If you aren't sure of where...I would say defer. If you aren't sure of where you'll be or if you really want to go solo, then wait until next year. That way, even if you and hubby can't go maybe some one else can run in his stead (taboo, I know, but you're the one who paid for the registrations!)<br /><br />Otherwise, if you are sold on the solo prospect, then I say go for it. I went to PHM solo and shared a room with 3 other women I had never met until that trip...and I had a BLAST! runDisney people are a fun bunch, I mean we make a vacation out of running half marathons and multi-day challenges, hello!?! We are a funny bunch for sure! <br /><br />Besides, I've heard nothing but AMAZING things about that race weekend, it is not to be missed. I REALLY wanted to go this year, but after having a baby, it just wasn't in the financial cards. :(Lenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497080625352955794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172069364470647819.post-70129261937419822582014-06-26T20:05:03.648-07:002014-06-26T20:05:03.648-07:00I think I'm convinced! :) I'll definitely ...I think I'm convinced! :) I'll definitely be adding you to my must meet people.

It's pre and post race that I like to spend with friends. I will be going to WDW for Wine & Dine solo. I have a few friends that will be running, but they are all traveling with other family and friends. I spent race weekend last year solo and really enjoyed it! I had the freedom to do my own thing or to meet up with friends. It really was the best of both worlds!<br /><br />If you do decide to travel alone, you can add my name to your meetup list. I've been to WDW about a dozen times and would be happy to answer any of your questions and help you plan. When you go back with your husband, you'll be the expert!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08051680097738627568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172069364470647819.post-76895356458542335722014-06-26T19:51:30.539-07:002014-06-26T19:51:30.539-07:00I wouldn't hesitate if it was Disneyland since...I wouldn't hesitate if it was Disneyland since that's my home turf park, but I'm a bit worried about going somewhere I've never been, especially since it's like 4 times as big. :) Though it would be so fun to meet new people who share the same crazy passion for running!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13666562341448768865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172069364470647819.post-45287010334568660982014-06-26T12:18:56.755-07:002014-06-26T12:18:56.755-07:00I'd do it solo, but I like traveling alone.

I also go to Disneyland on my own relatively regularly. On a race weekend, you can always meet people you talk to through the internet. I'd be willing to bet there are a lot of people who make the trip on their own due to cost or scheduling or just not being able to find a travel companion who wants to do Disney. You could probably meet some new people and have a great time.Jennifer K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06606118336143343644noreply@blogger.com
