h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 The also have android and iPhone apps. I use the iPhone one. It's great because it signals you to run or walk, so you don't have to worry about it.Which one do you have? I found several. I'm doing the walk briskly for 30 minutes 3 times a week for two weeks before I start the run than walk program. I don't know if the one I downloaded tells you when to walk/run.

I've used the one by Bluefin in the past, so that's the one I downloaded again. I think it's $2. I can play my own music, and it tells me when to walk and when to run.

Beckers 1,136 Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 I'm in. My goal is to do a 5k within a year.If you are really out of shape (like me) try Jeff Galloway conditioning program. Couch to 5 k was really hard for me, but doing Jeff's run, walk, run method I was up to 3.5 miles before I got pregnant and stopped. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You know, the more I think about it, I think more people need to know Ed's background and the whole story here. This is a man with serious, serious medical issues, but he still trained for and completed these races. What an inspiration! Maybe Ed could do a little trip report of his own, since we are kind of hijacking the hapless snowman's report. TCD PureTcrazy...rita 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DramaMama .......... Janet 75 Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Short update - Thrill/Olaf will chime in shortly. We had a great trip but returned home with loads of work to catch up on and colds we caught from his dad. I was able to see him during the half and full marathon at a few places but didn't get pics. Finding your favorite runner in that immense crowd is unreal! PureTcrazy...rita 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thrill Shakespeare (Andy) 58 Posted January 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Maybe Ed could do a little trip report of his own, since we are kind of hijacking the hapless snowman's report. I don't mind the hijacking at all! I've enjoyed hearing about Ed's races too -- and enjoyed meeting him at the Fort. Olaf will post this evening, complete with pictures. I'll tell you this much for now: running as Olaf is like being a rock star! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fortpartyof4 108 Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 First, I have to say I find the title of this TR somewhat comical……."running fun"??? To many, those words just don't go together! I dabble, and enjoy it, but wouldn't categorize it as fun. OK, perhaps running through Disney parks could be kind of fun. I get the RunDisney updates on my FB page and have to admit, it does look fun and is something I would probably do if I could get down there. Seriously, though, I stand in awe of you and Ed. It is one thing to complete one race! And, from reading this I see you have inspired at least one other person to improve their well-being. Bravo, gentlemen! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
