ALOHA!

ALOHA from Disney's Polynesian Resort! This is our last day at Disney. Although we will be sad to leave this beautiful place and the warm weather, I for one am a bit excited to be returning home soon. I am completely exhausted and looking forward to relaxing in my own bed. My knee/leg pain has progressively gotten worse as I have been here. I thought the warm weather would make things feel different, but that was just wishful thinking. And of course all the running I've been doing over the past couple of days has made it even worse! I won't really be looking forward to the plane ride though because the longer I sit, the more it stiffens up. Thank goodness our flight will not be a long one.

On a bright note, we have really been enjoying our stay at the Polynesian Resort. This is a great place to stay during a race weekend and I can't wait to tell you all the reasons why!

So as we will be saying good bye to one race weekend at Disney, it looks like Disney will be announcing another race weekend very shortly with "Smash the Half". What do you think it might be?  Maybe a men's themed race? Guess we'll find out very soon!

  1. Well everyone seems to think it has to do with either Star Wars or a Marvel (maybe Avengers) themed race but who knows. The one thing I do know is that the announcement is scheduled in Pacific Standard Time so that could very well mean a Disneyland related announcement which I hope not because that is far away for me. We could sure use a more "guy-inspired" race. With Tink and PHM we were beginning to feel left out. LOL

    1. We agree Frank! More "guy-inspired" races would be nice for all the male runners out there!

  2. Oh, the Polynesian is beautiful! I've been there just to check it out but have never stayed there. I'm sorry to hear about your leg but hope that you managed to have a good time in spite of it. As for the announcement, I'm thinking an Avengers themed race too. And I know plenty of women (me included) who would love an Avengers or Stars War theme :) They seems like they would be themes with wide-spread appeal for a lot of demographics.

  3. Oh my gosh - if it is an Avenger Theme, my husband will finally get me to a Disney race! :)

  4. Ugh - I'm sorry the knee pain is giving you grief! I've never stayed at the Polynesian but I love eating at O'hana so maybe one day I'll get the full experience. ;)

    I'm looking forward to hearing what this smash the half is all about! Should be interesting!

  5. I would love to stay at the Polynesian someday!!

    I am so excited for the runDisney announcement! My guess is either 1) An Avenger's themed race or 2) A full marathon at Disneyland.
