I love that Disney still has recreation in the form of golf. I still wish they would bring back Resort boat and bike rentals at all levels, morning yoga classes, and beach volleyball courts that are now missing. Heck even water sports on Bay Lake! Resort days could sometimes rival park days with...

The "core" line has some nice polos usually, but agreed. When every model is a female showcasing the new looks, it is pretty obvious. It would be nice to have some men style cut tanks and running shorts.

As of last week, the construction looks the same as the most recent photos. I could not believe the amount of scaffolding all over the lakeside!

Having just returned from Pop, I loved the pop of colors with the new window curtain, new chair back fabric, and new accented walls. The fake rug on the floor looked like clutter and I kept thinking I was tripping over something that was not there. LOL!

I agree with you. In my real world experience at runDisney races in Corral A, there are far less of the serious runner and there are far more of the recreational runner. The demograph has been changing for some time now. And I applaud all who get up and get moving!!

Whatever has changed is really sad and frustrating to myself, a loyalist. I ran and competed because I believed in the product and the experience.i had a great time. Even with a watered down experience I still enjoy my weekends. But so much now caters to the average or less than average person...

But I cannot imagine that the clubrD people eligible for early registration outnumber the amount of early registrations that were around for AP and DVC early registration. How many people do we think are in the club??!

I am so thankful and blessed for my health and my family, but I am having a really tough day. I always have looked forward to these events for 20 years. I have nothing on the tables for 2027. Shut out of my two fav weekends. But I am determined to grab a charity bib or sign up when something...

THIS!!! I support rundisney getting people up and moving truly I do! But the level of athlete has changed. In my early years, I ran faster and placed higher up in the rankings, but now I run slower and place much better (some of my best placing), even placing a top 10!

This used to exist for a minimal fee, open to all!

The entire process has changed. I was NEVER ONCE shut out from 2006 thru 2025. I was never even stressed!! Popularity is increasing, yes, but races aren’t growing. We used to have more WDW races, a full selection at DL, plus Paris! All those extra spots helped too. I hate feeling left out...

Registration season has been a let down for sure, and this is from a rundisney loyalist who began in 2006 with the Disney Endurance Series. Looking back and comparing, everything has gotten so much worse for such a higher price tag, with less offering. Maybe those are my thoughts because I am...

Failed again. 2nd consecutive time and I have literally zero idea what I am doing wrong.

Just had the realization again that there is yet ANOTHER real chance I will not make this event.

Which was the complete opposite for me with Wine and Dine which shut me out!!
