Many customers do not know they cannot get out via #Uber or #ridesharing! I refuse to deal with it when Uber STILL makes us accept those fares, drive halfway there, only to be blocked by closed roads!
Finally had a chance to look around Goofy's house in #Toontown in #Disneyland last night. Haven't seen it since the changeover. Saw some fun things. The husband and a friend played with the connected toy apparatus and were excited when they got it to complete and dump all the balls. It was late, so all the kids were gone. 1/2
And I didn't take any pics, but we were surprised to see Mickey on a late-night jog. Chatted with him a bit, and we discovered that he doesn't get early registration for #runDisney events. He indicated that he has to be on the computer madly refreshing just like everyone else! 😀
Mickey went into his house just as the midnight announcement about the end of the park's operating hours started to play. #Toontown#Disneyland 2/2
No #runDisney races for me at #Disneyland in September. The first notification that the 5k and 10k were sold out came right before it was my turn to enter the queue. I'll keep an eye out in case they open up spots closer to the day, but otherwise, I'll just be spectating. Not sure if I'll be doing any kind of course support. Congrats to those who succeeded in registering for the races they wanted.
I don't know that much about Taylor Swift, but in the last year or two, I've been reading a lot more stuff and finding out more things. The only song of hers that I was familiar with was "Shake It Off", and that was only because they used to play that a lot before and after #runDisney races.
I just heard her song "Ronan", and it's a good thing I take my lunch in a room by myself so that I wasn't crying to a room full of coworkers. 1/3
I'm glad for the half and challenge themes that don't make me feel like I'm missing out. The 5k and 10k themes are the ones I like so I'd be perfectly happy just doing those.
I get to participate in #MedalMonday ! I love all the moving elements in the medals for #runDisney#Disneyland half marathon weekend. Pluto on the 5k medal and Donald & Daisy on the 10k medal are sliders, and then Mickey and Minnie are both on springs in the half marathon medal. And the circular backdrop on Dumbo in the #DumboDoubleDare medal is a spinner.
It was a really brutal race for me. I had a lot of new experiences today, but thankfully, getting swept at a race and taking a DNF (did not finish) was not one of them. I'll do a more complete write-up later this week, but for now, I did finish the half marathon and so earned both a #HalfMarathon and #DumboDoubleDare medal. 1/2
And it wasn't just a 19.3 weekend like the medal, bib and shirts say. Since we did the 5k as well, it was a 22.4 weekend for each of us. #runDisney#Disneyland 2/2
Yay for the #runDisney snack box. Very nice selection of items this time. The husband got fruit snacks in his box rather than the pretzels I got in mine. #Disneyland
My favorite thing from the #runDisney#Disneyland 5k this morning also checked off two things on my list.
We came into #BlackSpireOutpost through the giant door in First Order Square.
And best of all, we exited out the giant door just to the left of the marketplace, and I've been wondering about that door since I first stared at the giant model of #Batuu at a D23 Expo those many years ago. #GalaxysEdge#StarWarsGalaxysEdge#StarWars 1/2
Pluto came out for a minute, and he apparently had a dog house, though I only got a glimpse of it. And then it was time to start, with the race logo projected on the Matterhorn. #runDisney#Disneyland 2/2
These are the current #runDisney#CoastToCoast challenge medals. The first one (front and back) is what you get if you completed last week's half-marathon (or marathon) at #WaltDisneyWorld and then complete this coming weekend's half-marathon.
The second medal (front and back) is what you get if you pair any other two eligible half marathon races. #Disneyland
