Marathon Weekend 2022

[Bree]

I woke up Tuesday with a sore throat and stomach ache. I tested and was negative. Pretty much a waste of a home test because I felt fine on Wednesday.

Between race weekend/ working at a supermarket I probably have/had it but it’s so mild that I’m just assuming it’s my seasonal allergies

For anyone who was amused by Jack Sparrow this past weekend, I was informed that he has an Instagram account. @joggingjacksparrow

I just found this out today as he randomly liked on of my photos from 2020. Strange

Someone earlier mentioned some chipping on the marathon ( if not others) medals… today I noticed what they were talking about. What are the solutions?
—- tolerate it as this is normal for these medals
—- contact Disney to replace them
—- apply fingernail polish or other sealant on top to preserve paint
Thanks for any help!

I’m going with option 1 for now, although asking them for a replacement couldn’t hurt. I was sorta under the impression that this might be an issue for most medals, but did I just end up unlucky on this one?

Does anyone have any suggestions on a shadow box or display ideas for displaying your medals? Since it was my first Dopey I would like to put them in a shadow box and put them in my office at work.

Here are my medals. I did the same for my 2020 Dopey medals. For marathons I use a smaller 9x9 frame. Got these at Michael's fairly cheaply.

Silver lining to the Marathon Weekend merchandise situation.

At least they weren't selling popcorn buckets...

It looks awesome, but daisey facing the wrong way would drive me nuts. I got this for my wife's medals. It is very nicely made. https://www.etsy.com/listing/743910133/custom-magic-world-with-custom-text

I saw that on yahoo. To be fair, I'd probably hop in line too. Those Figment popcorn buckets are darn cute and I'm a sucker for anything Figment...

My wife has something similar for her medals. Hers has a little shelve above the hanging bar. She has the past RD shoe ornaments on the little shelf.

I woke up this morning. Felt nothing, tested for nothing and continued as usual. That is it.. have a nice day

Going to marathon weekend and getting covid is starting to sound like the old "chicken pox parties" that I've heard used to happen so that parents of kids could get chicken pox over with and not have to deal with it later. Ha. I literally avoided it for 2 years, wore KN95 masks in corrals and during start/end of race, didn't go to restaurants, didn't go to parks, drove my own car, didn't ride a bus or an airplane, barely spoke to anyone - but I got it and I'm guessing there were a LOT of aerosolized viral particles floating around in that air from all the runners who either 1) were infectious without knowing it, or 2) thought they had "just a cold" so ran the race anyway.

So you think you got it outdoors vs. the hotel, plane, etc….ok

Didn’t go on a plane. Stayed at a hotel with open air corridors to rooms and didn’t go inside any space at the hotel. Yea I am pretty sure covid was heavy in the air with 12,000 runners packed together and coughing, snot rockets, etc. I am assuming you haven’t participated in a runDisney race, if you don’t know how people are packed close together in the corrals and during much of the run. There is no “open air” to let air circulate.

As I have done for most of the past years, I calculated the rankings for the Dopey results. The pdf file is too big to attach on the DISboards, but you can find it here: Dopey 2022 Ranked Results

Thanks for doing this! It's fun to see where I ranked.

Thank goodness the marathon was last week and not tomorrow! Weather looks really bad for tomorrow.

I'd take that temp range, though!

Just want to remind everyone who used PhotoPass/MemoryMaker to keep checking your accounts. Today, out of the blue, the four photos I was missing appeared! They were Pinocchio (5k), Sadness (5k), Joy (5k), and Buzz Lightyear (10k). So happy to have those photos!

Thank you! I was wondering what happened to the Buzz photos.
