Okay, so my Bluetooth scale started freaking out last week. When I stepped on it, it looked like I was a contestant on The Biggest Looser when they do their weigh-ins. The numbers were just going everywhere and then it finally went to ERR.
I figured, the batteries were over a year old, so I replace them. Yeah... well, now it's telling me that I weigh 302 pounds! So, I think I'm back in the market for another new bathroom scale.
So, I had to do my best estimate on the big tank scale at work. Looks like I had a bad week, both 5 years ago and this year. I managed to do worse this go around.t

B210K Second Week Review
The second week went to crap!
The past couple of weeks have just been rough on the training schedule. Between weather and things happening that took up time, I've been a little off track.
I've moved straight into week 3 day 2 starting today. It was just getting too rough to try and "catch up".

We're up to 63 minutes of activity! With the heat and humidity, I've not pushed it. I just want to make sure I get through it.
Today I did the Week 3 Day 2 and it went pretty good. I'm able to keep a slow pace in the heat and humidity. I remain moving throughout the whole 17 minutes. My pace isn't exactly steady, but it's still a work in progress.
I would like to start taking some time, either in the morning (HAHAHA), or on the weekend to start testing some different intervals to see how I want to start my 1/2 Marathon training.
RunDisney "minus's" more
There used to be a term that happened at Disney all of the time. They would "PLUS" things. Add little bits here and there that added to the over all experience at Walt Disney World. Not so much any more. Bob Iger and crew are now all about the bottom line at Disney. So, now instead of PLUSING, we're getting MINUSING.
5 years ago, my first race at Disney World, we actually go stuff in the goody bags when you went to pick up your bib and shirts. Each year, it's gotten less and less, until now its a "VIRTUAL" goody bag.
Other races I've attended in the intervening years, we've gotten a wide variety of things. The Indy MINI and Monumental races, you can still pick up some nice freebie stuff at the Expo and you also get a few items.
Now-a-days, at the end of a Disney race now net's you a "box of junk food" and a bottle of water. A banana too, if they have any left (we back of the pack folk get slim pickins at the end of a race). I remember that first race, trying to juggle so much stuff (a banana, an apple I think, a powerade, a water, a cookie or something like that), that I had to hand it off to my Dad so I could actually get things situated.
So... what have they done now? In my opinion... this one is a HUGE F.U. to the loyal Disney racers.
On or about August 1st, they are no longer allowing deferments of RunDisney races. So, if you end up sick or break a leg or something, you are S.O.L.
Now, those of you that don't know (well, 99% of the people that read this DO KNOW) that Disney races are E-X-P-E-N-S-I-V-E!! They are some of the most expensive races you can enter. It was the bonus fact that you did get a lot of extra stuff. But like everything else in the parks, they've been slowly minusing things here and there.
This last item is a HUGE minus. For such an expensive race to just up and tell you that you're out of luck that you broke your ankle 3 weeks before the race. It WAS a pain in the rear to even defer a Disney race. They would keep your money, but you could just register the next year and THEN they would refund your money for the previous year, minus handling! WHOA!
So, here are the breakdowns for 2017:
Dopey $560 (Marathon, 1/2 Marathon, 10K, 5K)
Goofy $365 (Marathon, 1/2 Marathon)
Marathon $180
1/2 Marathon $170
10K $110
5K $65
So, someone registered for Dopey and breaks their ankle training for this INSANE challenge, is out $560!!
This sucks.
