My wife bribed me into taking the family to Disneyland by telling me she'd purchased me entrance into the runDisney event. I'm just now looking at details and realized this is a woman themed event!
I'm by no means worried about that (I'm father to several girls and am all about empowerment), but in looking at the starting corrals, it would appear that I'll be behind at least 500 of you wonderful ladies, at paces that will have me treading your heels and I'm wondering what it's like to run in a women-themed race as a man!
Someone told me to come and start late to avoid the herd? The racer in me believes that to be very counter intuitive! Do any of you have experiences you can share? I'm keeping my time expectations WAY down (gotta get those selfies), but what else?
