This week's episode intro is courtesy of Rise and Runner Tara. You can be picked to intro the show by clicking the Join The Conversation link and leaving us a intro.

We have a full house this week as we are joined by our friends Pamela and Kristen (Running in Makeup / Dare to Dopey) as members of our Council of Costumes . Fellow Council member Cindy was not able to join us for this recording .

The training schedule this week for Wine and Dine Weekend is 4 miles with one of them being the Magic Mile. Those running the Goofy or Dopey Challenges during Marathon Weekend have a 7 and 17 mile back-to-back weekend. Those "just" running the marathon have 17 miles on the plan. We get a training update from Lexi who had 26 miles on her schedule, so she ran the Towpath Marathon in Cleveland, Ohio as a catered training run. We then get into the range of emotions we run into (no pun intended) during a marathon. 

We got our first look at the Princess Half Marathon Weekend medals that were released by runDisney this week. Listen to our takes on the medals and some of little things we noticed. 

The Council of Costumes returns as we are joined by our friends Kristen (Running in Makeup / Dare to Dopey) and Pamela. The conversation covers multiple topics: costumes for Wine and Dine weekend, group costumes, alternate takes on the themes of races, and much more to get your costumes ready for race weekend.

We introduced a new segment this week that we will be featuring from time to time called Podcasts We Listen To. The inaugural podcast for this segment is Disney with the Ducks. We sit down and chat with the Ducks on how they started their podcast. 

On this week's Race Report Spotlight we take a trip to the Windy City for the Chicago Marathon. We talk with Emily and Rob about running the Marathon and spectator support on the course.

We are then joined by Peter Brookhart from The Brookhart Project.  Peter and the gang discuss creative ways to fundraise for your charity bib.
