RE: TP-Disney Who's excited for January 2009?

Hi,

Sorry I have been and still am working at a 100 mile race. I have been up
non stop since yesterday at 9:00 am. We still have about another 9 hrs of
work to go.

The main difference is we start further back. More like where the Marathon
starts and we bypass the left side turn of Richard Petty. We stay on the
right side. We are also on the other side of the road on the way to MK.

Chat later more runners to track....

Hey Natalie and Robert - thanks for the responses. Nice to know I am
not alone in my excitement.

Natalie - good luck with the full; remember to enjoy yourself on the
course and take in as much of the scenery as you can (definitely
bring a camera unless you are going for a PR).

Robert - best wishes for the most complete recovery possible for your
surgeries/injuries. I had to laugh out loud when I say Natalie's
reply to your 2nd Dopey statement. I think the question should be
who's Dopey not what's the Dopey. Anyway, being the Disney guru that
you are, do you have any information on the new half course for
2009? I have viewed the maps and am not picking up on any changes.
Are they subtle or am I just missing it? I would love to go through
Epcot first thing as we did many moons ago (last in 2005 I believe),
with it all lit up rather than starting down the dark highway to
nowhere. On the other hand, I also enjoy the choir at the final .2
mile mark (it makes for an uplifting final sprint/wog*/stroll
depending on your speed and what you have left).
*for those that don't know a wog is a walk/jog combination

Best of luck everyone in preparation for 2009.

Robyn
