2011 WDW Half-Marathon/Marathon Thread

Congrats!!

I changed my profile to reflect the next goal - a finisher medal from the October half marathon. I'm going to try and squeeze in a 10K or two between now and then. September is when the local race clubs (New Orleans, Gulfport/Biloxi, and Mobile) start scheduling 5K races and longer races again, as the weather starts to cool.

Those of you on Daily Mile and Facebook - how do you get your milage to post when you update your runs? All I get is the message I post in addition, but not the little running gingerbread man figure or the time and distance.

What am I doing wrong?

Once it did that to me, and all I can say is... I have no idea Not sure what I did different that time

I am ready to run, but my leg is not. I am getting frustrated. Not sure what to do.

Are you asking how to get it to post on Facebook at the same time? If so, there's a tiny "F" logo button I click for the runs I want shared on FB. It's right next to a Twitter icon button whenever I post a run. I sign in to DM through my FB account, so that might be part of it too.

Also, make sure you're under the "Add Workout" tab instead of the "Note" tab at the top of the screen if you want the time and mileage to show up.

BeeJay, I think I have tried those tips without success, but will try again.

Within 30 days of the Wine and Dine, and my travel plans got changed on me, so I just booked airfare down and back instead of driving. I was able to score a round trip flight to Tampa for about $160 total, so I am very happy with that. I can't drive down and back any cheaper . . . but I will have to rent a car and will burn a tank of gas, so there go some of the savings. Still, after all the driving I did this past weekend I am thrilled to get a direct flight to and from Central Florida.
