    My son and I did the Epcot AH Thursday, February 15. We arrived shortly after 6 and went to the holding area where all the AH people enter. They ended up letting us enter Epcot just after 6:30, so that was a nice little bonus. Over the course of the night, we were able to do the following...

    Disney After Hours Q&A and Experiences Thread

    Rose and Crown was definitely open last week when we were there. They had a cast member at the door making sure you had a wrist band on for entrance.

    New York Marathon 2021

    My wife and I ran this year as well. It was much hillier than we both expected. I knew all about the start. One mile up over the Verrazzano Narrows Bridge. That wasn't overly bad on fresh legs and purposely going very slow out the gate. The Queensboro Bridge at mile 15 was another matter...

    New York Marathon 2021

    And anyone who put 2021 as their requested year is guaranteed entry. No lottery this year either. Both my wife and I will be running on November 7.

    Future runDisney Events

    I don't think they have to wait until October or November. Both New York and Boston are actively planning their races right now. Anyone running NYC this year will know at the beginning of June that they are running and what the field size is. Boston has already announced a field size of...

    Future runDisney Events

    I think Disney will probably look at what Boston and New York are doing and try for something similar. Two of the biggest races in the world that have multiple street closures to deal with in major cities. New York has to transport people out to the start line via bus or boat where people then...

    New York Marathon 2020....coming to you Nov 7, 2021!

    Wife and I selected 2021 and 2022. We figure if one of us gets in this year, then we will just end up defering until 2022. We ran the virtual in 2019 with the intent to run the 50th in 2020. So hopefully we will both get that chance this year.

    New York Marathon 2021

    Wife and I put 2021 as our first choice. We want to run the 50th, so hoping we get in. As for spectators, I am not sure the city can really control that. People line the streets along where they live to cheer the runners on. No way they could control that effectively. My guess is NYRR is...

    New York Marathon 2020....coming to you Nov 7, 2021!

    Very true on the vaccine rollout. However, I am sure they can delay any type of lottery or decisions a month or two if need be. Waiting until March or April to announce the process really would not affect the average runner. Still plenty of time for people to make plans. I think we will have...

    New York Marathon 2020....coming to you Nov 7, 2021!

    I am also of the opinion that if a full field is run next year that everyone that was guaranteed in 2020 should have the right to choose to run in 2021. Chances are there will be people who still are not comfortable being in big groups, some people who do not want to come from international...

    New York Marathon 2020....coming to you Nov 7, 2021!

    I just choose Option 2. At this point, you do not get to pick a year. That will come in early 2021 apparently. From what I am reading, they did this in case New York City tells them they have to run with a smaller field next year. For example, if they can only run with a 30K field and 35K...

    Not really surprised by this decision but glad they are giving you up to three years to run at no additional cost.

    Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

    I'd have to say it is only a matter of "when" WDW will close. Not "If". The way things seem to be trending, I think that is where this will end up. If at any point the governor makes a declaration that any places and all events with a certain amount of people have to shut down, then the...

    New York Marathon 2020....coming to you Nov 7, 2021!

    The past couple years they have done a NY Virtual Marathon. Sign up I believe has been in July, and only 500 slots or so have been available. You sign up, and then have to run a full marathon the on your own the same weekend as the NY Marathon. You then submit the proof through Strava that...

    New York Marathon 2020....coming to you Nov 7, 2021!

    I read an article last night that they had 185,000 lottery entries this year. A 50% increase over last year. My wife and I did the virtual so we’re already in and have hotel booked. Just need to get flights at a later date. All the time and training were well worth it not to have to rely on...

    Star Wars: Galactic Starship (resort experience) News

    Not going to be cheap if I had to guess. All depends on what exactly will be included in the price. Wonder if your excursion to Batuu will be an after hours one, or in the middle of the day much like what a regular cruise ship does. Also assume you would get VIP entrance to the two GE...

    Rise of the Resistance...ride discussion (spoilers)

    Rode for the first time yesterday, and based on descriptions here, I am certain we experienced the full ride. All three ride vehicles as well as scenes. I can definitely say that had we skipped the transport and been taken to the hangar, I would have known something was up. Glad to know we...

    READ POST 1 & 2 FIRST-Rise of the Resistance Boarding Group Planning and Information-*No Spoilers*

    It was, but we wanted to make sure we could ride MFSR with minimal wait. We probably could have arrived about 15-20 minutes later and been fine, but I wanted to leave nothing to chance. If we’d been the first ones there I would have felt dumb, but a couple hundred people had beaten us. When...
